How to Tell If Squirrels Are in Your Columbus Home

Gray squirrels are a common attic intruder in Central Ohio, and they follow a predictable schedule. Because squirrels are active at dawn and dusk, scratching, scurrying, or gnawing sounds in your attic or walls during those hours point more toward squirrels than toward raccoons or mice.

Physical signs are just as telling. Look for chewed holes around rooflines, soffits, fascia boards, and vents. Inside, you may find compressed or displaced insulation, leaf-and-debris nesting piles, or droppings. Because squirrels’ front teeth grow continuously, they gnaw constantly, and electrical wiring is a frequent target. Fall and spring are peak entry seasons in Columbus as squirrels seek shelter to nest and raise young.
