Squirrels in Your Attic? Let's Get Them Back Home.
Look, we know squirrels. They're part of our neighborhoods here in Houston and the Dallas/Fort Worth area. They're just trying to find a safe, warm spot, but when they decide your attic is the perfect place to hang out, that's when you can call us. Chewed wires, damaged insulation—it can become a real problem.
We're not about quick fixes that hurt the animals. We believe in doing this right, for both you and the squirrels. We'll find out how they're getting in, and we'll use methods that gently encourage them to move out on their own.
Hearing those scratching sounds? We're here to help. Let's get your home back to being yours, and give the squirrels a chance to thrive where they belong.

I see a squirrel circling and falling over. Does it have rabies?Squirrels rarely get rabies. A more common, fatal problem for squirrels is the roundworm parasite that infects the brain and results in signs similar to rabies. Another look-alike symptom in squirrels is head trauma caused by being hit by a car. Contact 911 Wildlife to assess strange squirrel behavior and for immediate squirrel removal in Dallas or Houston.

What do I do when a squirrel falls down my chimney?
Squirrels commonly fall down chimneys and can't get out. For DIY squirrel removal in your Houston or Dallas home, here's what you can do:
Hang a 3/4 inch thick rope or a long branch down the chimney (securely fastened at the top).
All the squirrel has to do is climb back out.
Be sure to install a chimney cap on your flue to prevent a reoccurrence.
Call the professionals at 911 Wildlife for faster squirrel removal.

How do I stop squirrels from eating all my bird food?You may have a difficult time keeping squirrels away from a free buffet. You can contact your local nature center or Audubon Society for a baffler design or free-standing feeder or purchase the "Absolute" bird feeder that stops squirrels in the tracks. Another newly designed battery-operated bird feeder, "The Yankee Flipper," twirls when a squirrel lands on it, literally flipping them off. We strongly discourage the use of capsaicin-based "hot pepper" powder mixes, which, although advertised as a "humane" repellent, makes squirrels quite sick and can be irritating to a bird's eyes.
