If you are hearing
scratching and chewing sounds in your attic or walls in Westchester, chances are
it’s a squirrel. Squirrels breed in late winter and early fall. Once the female
squirrel has become pregnant she begins to look for a place to have her babies.
Squirrels give birth to 3 to 5 babies. This is when the problems start for the
citizens of Westchester. The mother squirrel will chew her way into your roof
and make a nest in your attic or walls. If your home in Westchester has wood
siding, this just makes it easier for a squirrel. Squirrels have strong teeth
and have to chew to keep their ever growing teeth from growing too much. The
mother squirrel wants her babies to have a safe, warm and dry place to grow up.
Squirrels commonly chew the corners or the soffets of your home in Westchester.
Squirrels can do a lot of costly damage to your home. Once they have gained
access to your attic, they will make a mess of your insulation. Not to mention
chew your electrical or phone wires which can cause a fire to start in your home
in Westchester. Squirrels will also steal your insulation to make a nest with in
a tree for the summer months. Once the weather gets hot the squirrel will make a
house in a tree where it is cooler. Our company will catch your squirrel
and relocate them far away where they won’t cause a problem for you anymore. Our
company will also squirrel proof the areas where the squirrel has chewed.

We have offices in:
Yonkers, Chappaqua, Scarsdale, Yorktown, Ossining, White Plains, Brooklyn and
Eastchester.

Baby Squirrels

Click Here To contact a Squirrel Removal Expert,   Baby squirrels are born during the warmer months in the Northern Regions of North America, and all year long in the southern regions of North America. A female squirrel can have up to 4 litters per year in the south, and only 2 litters of baby squirrels in the north. Mother squirrels know not to breed when it is too cold for her babies to survive. 

Baby Squirrels New Born Squirrels are called “pinkies” Im sure this picture tells why 

Baby squirrels are something that looks like they are from outer space as soon as they are born! Buldgey eyes, no hair, and as clumbsey as they can be. They don’t make any sound at all. They just lay in the nest, and wait for the mother squirrel to come feed them. They will live on milk produced by the female squirrel for up to 6 weeks before they emerge from a hollow tree, or an attic of a home to see the big world outside. They will be afraid of everything, as it is all foraign to them, but the look and smell of the outside world will have there attention and curiosity for the rest of there lives!

Juvinile Grey Squirrel

Here is a picture of a juvinile squirrel about 3 weeks old. Shes looking a little more like a squirrel than when she was born doesn’t she?

 And now they start exploring the world outside there nest! There are dangers outside for the baby squirrels, but the mother is always nearby, and will become extremly agressive if something tries to harm one of her babys! She will bark, chatter, and run at a threat, no matter how large it is!

Baby squirrels do have enemies: Coyotes, Fox, Owls, Hawks, Snakes, and even Dogs and Cats would love to make that baby squirrel into a tastey meal. Its survival of the fittest out there in the animal world, and at this point, they arent quite there yet, but the ones who survive the first 6 months of life will be as agile as there mother, climbing trees, running across roof tops, and showing off all the acrobatic skills while showing no fear of falling even from the smallest branches of the highest tree!

 I hope you enjoyed learning about baby squirrels as much as I enjoyed writing about them, thanks for visiting!
