If you're hearing scampering, scratching, or rolling sounds overhead in the early
morning or around dusk, you almost certainly have squirrels in the attic. It's the
number-one wildlife call we get in Marietta, and the longer they stay, the more
damage they do. Marietta Wildlife Removal connects you with a licensed local pro who removes them and seals your home so they can't
return.
Call (678) 257-7116. We answer 24/7.
Why squirrels are such a problem here
Marietta's mature tree canopy puts branches right up against rooflines, giving
squirrels a bridge straight onto your house. From there they exploit the
construction gap along the fascia, gaps around gable and roof vents, and worn
soffits. Once inside, they gnaw constantly, and squirrels chewing on electrical
wiring in an attic is a genuine house-fire risk, not just a nuisance.
When it's worst
Squirrels are seasonal. In Marietta the two big waves are late winter (roughly
January–February) and late summer (August–September), when females look for
a safe, warm place to nest and raise young. If you're hearing noise during those
windows, there's a good chance there's a litter in your attic, which means you
need someone who will remove the babies too, not just the adults.
How it's removed
- Inspection: our pros find the primary entry hole (there's usually one main one)
plus any secondary gaps - Removal: humane trapping or a one-way exclusion door that lets them out
but not back in; if there's a nest, our pros remove the young by hand so none are
left trapped inside - Sealing: every entry point repaired with professional-grade materials,
backed by warranty - Cleanup: decontamination of droppings and nesting material where needed
Sealing is the whole point
Plenty of people trap a squirrel, feel relieved, and then hear noise again a week
later, because the hole was still open and another moved right in. The job isn't
just trapping; the house gets closed up. That's the difference between a temporary fix and a
permanent one.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have squirrels in my attic?
The clearest sign is scratching or rolling sounds overhead in the early morning and again before dusk, since squirrels are active during the day. You may also spot chewed soffit, fascia, or vent screening, or gnaw marks along the roofline. Daytime attic noise in Marietta is very often squirrels.
Do squirrels have babies in the attic?
Yes. Squirrels typically have two litters a year, in late winter and again in late summer, and an attic is a favorite nesting spot. If only the adult were removed, the young would be left to die in the walls, so our pros locate and remove the whole family before sealing the home.
How do you keep squirrels from coming back?
Removal is only half the job. Our pros seal every entry point and construction gap along the roofline with professional-grade, warrantied repairs. Squirrels are persistent chewers, so sealing with the right materials is what actually keeps them out for good.
How much does squirrel removal cost in Marietta?
It depends on how many squirrels are involved, how they got in, and whether you need attic cleanup or repairs. We give you a clear price after inspecting, and we offer same-day service in most of Cobb County. Call (678) 257-7116 and we will come take a look.
