Ground Squirrel Activity Around Your Property
Ground squirrels are often active above ground during the day. Their burrows may extend through several areas, making it important to check more than the first opening you notice.
Open Burrows
Ground squirrel burrows typically have visible openings without the soil mounds commonly associated with gophers. These openings may develop near landscaped areas, slopes, and property boundaries.
Repeated Activity
You may see ground squirrels moving between burrows or feeding around the property. Repeated sightings can help us identify active areas and determine how much of the property needs attention.
Ground Squirrel Treatment Options
We look at where the animals are active, how the burrows are distributed, and whether the surrounding conditions affect treatment. Depending on what we find, service may involve trapping, carbon monoxide treatment, or both.
Trapping Method
Trapping may be recommended when activity is concentrated in specific areas. We place traps where ground squirrels have been observed and determine whether follow-up visits are needed.
Carbon Monoxide Treatment
This treatment uses specialized equipment to introduce carbon monoxide gas into active burrow systems. We determine whether this method is appropriate based on the location of the burrows and the surrounding property conditions.
