Humane, Guaranteed Squirrel Removal in Scarborough
If you have already tried to patch a hole in your roofline yourself and the squirrels found their way back in within weeks, you already know a quick fix is not enough here. We remove them humanely and seal every entry point properly the first time, so you are not dealing with this again next season.
Why Squirrels Keep Coming Back in Scarborough
Scarborough’s mature tree canopy near Rouge National Urban Park, Thomson Memorial Park and Morningside Park puts a squirrel within a single jump of almost any roofline in the area. Established neighbourhoods like Agincourt and Woburn have older homes with soffits and fascia that have simply aged past their prime, giving squirrels an easy foothold.
Because tree cover is so dense near the ravine corridors, a sealed entry point on one side of a property often just pushes the squirrel to try a different spot nearby. Spring and fall bring the sharpest spikes, when squirrels actively search for a warm, secure space to nest.
OUR REVIEWS
What a Squirrel in the Attic Actually Costs You
This is not just noise overhead. A squirrel gnaws constantly to keep its teeth from overgrowing, and your electrical wiring, wood framing and insulation are all fair game, which is a real fire risk sitting directly above your family.
Every week the animal stays, the nest grows larger and the eventual repair bill climbs with it. A patch job that is not done properly just means paying for the same repair twice.

Our Squirrel Removal Process
Inspection
We examine your roofline, attic, soffits and vents to confirm how the squirrel entered and whether young are present.
Humane Removal
We remove the animal using a humane method suited to the location, often a one-way door that lets it exit on its own. We follow MNRF guidelines for humane squirrel handling and exclusion in Ontario.
Exclusion & Proofing
We seal the entry point with durable materials so another squirrel cannot chew through or use the same opening again.
Cleanup & Restoration
We remove contaminated insulation and nesting material, then disinfect the area to restore your attic to a safe condition.
Neighbourhoods We Serve in Scarborough
Agincourt
Agincourt's mature street trees sit close enough to the Rouge Park corridor that squirrels move easily from the ravine into nearby rooflines and attic vents.
Malvern
Malvern backs onto Rouge National Urban Park, and the dense canopy there means a resealed entry point can attract another squirrel from next door within days.
Woburn
Woburn sits close to Thomson Memorial Park, and its older housing stock gives squirrels plenty of aged fascia and soffit gaps to reopen if a repair is not done properly.
West Hill
West Hill sits near Highland Creek, where tree cover funnels squirrels straight toward rooflines that have already been chewed open once before.
Guildwood
Guildwood's tree-lined streets near the Bluffs give squirrels constant cover to test the same roofline again after a quick patch job.
Birch Cliff
Birch Cliff's older homes near the bluffside ravines see squirrels return to the same soffit gap season after season if it is not sealed with durable materials.
Scarborough Village
Scarborough Village sits near Morningside Park, and the heavy tree canopy there keeps squirrel pressure high on rooflines year round.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does squirrel removal cost in Scarborough?
The cost depends on how many entry points there are, whether young are present, and how much attic cleanup is needed. A single resealed vent is priced differently than a full soffit repair after a long-term nest. We provide a clear quote after the inspection, before any work begins.
Is squirrel removal regulated in Ontario?
Yes. Ontario’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act requires humane handling of squirrels, and MNRF guidelines set out how wildlife control work must be carried out. Our technicians follow these rules on every call.
How long does squirrel removal take in Scarborough?
Once a one-way exclusion door is installed at the entry point, most squirrels leave within a few days on their own schedule. We then confirm the attic is clear before sealing the opening permanently. Cleanup and restoration can add another visit depending on the damage found.
Why should I deal with a squirrel in the attic quickly?
A squirrel left in place keeps gnawing at wiring, framing and insulation, and that is a real fire risk sitting directly above your family. The nest also grows larger the longer the animal stays, which means a bigger repair bill later. Acting quickly, and sealing the entry point properly the first time, is the only way to avoid paying for the same repair twice.
Protect Your Scarborough Property Today
A squirrel that reopens the same entry point near Agincourt, Woburn or Scarborough Village will keep costing you until the repair is finally done properly, and every week it stays makes the nest, and the bill, bigger. Our licensed technicians seal the opening correctly the first time, so you are not calling us back for the same problem next season.
