$5 homemade squirrel exclusion device works much better than $175 one I bought

The steel mesh is called "hardware cloth".
Suddenly this summer, squirrels were having a free-for-all in my attic.
The hyper-expensive trap I bought completely sucked.
I also bought two "Havahart" no-harm traps and used them on the ground near my garage, and I did manage to capture two squirrels with them.
I relocated them about 5 miles away.
But still, I could hear several more squirrels partying like it was 1999 in my garage attic.
Necessity is the mother of invention. ...so I threw something together.
It worked incredibly well, and completely eliminated the squirrels (permanently) in just one afternoon.
Complete success!
I was restored as King of my castle.
It was a great feeling getting those crappin' little bastards out of there.
--------
The steel mesh I used is a common item sold at hardware stores under the term "hardware cloth". I used the lightest/cheapest type (1/4-in mesh openings, 23 gauge wire) and the smallest roll available, which was still way more than I needed. I found it at a local hardware store, but you can click the Amazon link below to buy the correct 1/4 Inch Mesh 24 Inch Tall x 5 Feet Long Hardware Cloth
→ amzn.to/2L4nhzP ←
I cut three small pieces off the long single wire that bundles the whole sheet of hardware cloth tightly in a roll, to make the three hinges at the top.
The optional bottom (furthest from camera) grid layer was only for bonus lock-out protection. My goal was to expand the overall area being protected by the metal grid, because I thought they might react to being locked out by trying to chew a new entrance somewhere very near to their old familiar entrance. The outermost (top/closest to camera) hinged "door" grid panel was marked by me with a black Sharpie marker, that's why it looks weird, ...or kinda like it has a hole in it. But it's only an illusion caused by the black 'circle' I drew on it with the marker. I pressed that door grid against the building and traced the exact shape of their chewed hole onto the top middle part of it, to start things off. Then I used it as a handy template to create two more grid panels that were used as the base, actually cutting an entrance hole in those two. I'd estimate that all three grid panels are about 9x9 inches. The whole idea is for the door to be big enough that they are guaranteed to be standing on it (thereby making it impossible to open) whenever they come to investigate the entrance. So when in doubt, too big will probably work better than too small.
The green plastic discs are the "cap" of a type of standard roofing nail. The green cap might even denote the exact size/type (not sure). I used them "unmodified" in some cases, where the wood was strong enough to take the hammering. But mostly, I replaced the nails (keeping the very useful green caps) with tiny screws. Basically the little screws were just long enough to bite into the wood for a few full turns, burying some tooth into it. But with all of them together, and with the plastic caps to more broadly distribute pressure across the grid, the whole system was sturdy enough to hold up to anything a squirrel would throw at it.
This late modification was key!→ I used a lemon drop sized fishing weight (use a nut, small bolt, whatever) hanging from about 2 feet of fishing line, to help close the door better. Tie line on bottom of movable door grid, then thread line through bottom of static base grid, then attach weight and let it dangle about 2 feet down. Now the door should close instantly and securely. Without the door-closing weight, they might have quickly learned how the door works. But with the weight the door closes instantly, with no bouncing. There's no chance/time for the squirrels to learn anything.

I want to thank this inventor from the bottom of my heart. I was in despair at how to get the squirrels out of my attic, listening to them rummaging through my walls and shuddering at the damage they might be doing. I replicated the device and now they are gone. PARTY'S OVER! Thank you! One thing I did slightly different for my situation is attach a small pulley to the house under the trap and run the string with the small weight through that to close the outer door of the trap a little more securely after a squirrel's exit. I was a little concerned it might make it too hard for the varmints to get out but it didn't. For the weight, I used a large nut. Ironic, huh? No, not the kind the FOOLS eat, but the kind that goes on a bolt.

[@baddphil1495]

How to make it .... use welded wire hardware fabric purchased at HD or Lowes and secure the first layer over the hole so the little pricks can't find a way back in and cut a hole the size of the opening they are coming in and out of. The nails you see are roofing nails with a plastic washer also purchased in a 1lb box at HD. Second cut a 2nd piece of the hardware fabric making it flat and at least from the video probably 12"x12" .... hinge it at the top with some thin wire ties but do it loose so it swings like a door and lays flat against the piece you nailed to the house (important). After the critters are gone you can use a smaller piece of the same material to block the hole or replace with siding. This is a great video OP!

[@markberry7295]

What an amazing invention! We had squirrels BETWEEN FLOORS driving us crazy where there is no way to get at them. We scanned the internet for help and only got pitiful, discouraging advice such as individually trapping each squirrel, hiring expensive pest control svcs etc. I built a rig like this but had to use magnets to get the cage door to shut flush. The magnets were not strong enough to prevent the squirrels from exiting. After 4 days the last holdouts left the attic and none could return. Humane efficient elegant and cheap solution to daunting problem. You should patent it!

[@totallyfrozen]

Mark Berry, yup! It works. They problem is, as you can see from the hole they’re exiting in this video, they chew a hole in the wood to make a entrance. They aren’t using a hole that was built into the house. So you install an exclusion door over the hole, and later, they’ll chew another one when it gets too cold outside or they want to give birth.

If you can get into the attic, then use air-blower to scare and get them out. I was successful to get them out some years ago. Then, I did it again a few months ago. Block the hole with a piece of metal.

[@TrehanCreekOutdoors]

Thanks for an excellent video for a simple and effective exclusion device. As others have said, you now have four squirrel on the outside all eager and angry enough to chew another entrance to get back in. Getting them out and blocking that entrance isn't a complete cure. You MUST either totally relocate the squirrels to at least 2 miles or more away or you must kill them. As long as they remain alive and at your property, they will work tirelessly to get back in your attic. Generally, killing them is the best option as relocation merely takes your problem critters and puts them on someone else's property. In many places, there are laws against relocating nuisance animals onto some other property. Having said that, once you have killed them you can watch my videos showing how to clean and prepare them for cooking. Four squirrels will give you a nice sized batch of Squirrel Dumplings which I guarantee you will eat with gusto.

[@AntonHu]

If you'd simply blocked the hole they might have chewed your cables in the loft just trying to stay alive. Your method is a win-win for both of you - great idea.

[@HsingSun]

Good job! I used air-blower to get them out from inside the attic. Then, I blocked the hole with a piece of metal. No more squirrel noise

freehold, oh yeah! Pest control pros are necessary for some jobs but not most. They have to make a living so they love to get on KZbin and post comments telling everyone to “call a professional”. Most of the time you can do your own pest control. Funny thing is, the big national pest control franchises (e.g. Orkin) post videos on KZbin showing you how to do exactly what they do and what they use. LOL! Yes, understanding insect behavior and life cycles and rodent behavior and life cycles is scientific and there are scientists with doctorate degrees in those fields who come up with the poisons and a lot of the methods, but at the technician level “it ain’t rocket science”. You seldom need to hire a pro if you are willing to do some research, put in the effort yourself, and spend a little money on supplies.

I had the same problem. They chewed through aluminum siding on an overhang soffit. I place two courses of aluminum and they started chewing through that.

Thanks to you I have just nailed down the solution to my attic squirrel problem.

I have been listening to them sporadically for over a month, that's enough. I was ticked enough yesterday to dig out the "Ol Blue" bb gun and go up and shoot something, I think I hit one and felt bad instantly, different strokes for different folks I guess, I just don't want to kill them. My only issue is how much I trust the door not allowing them back in even with the weights, like just enough weight to allow them (babies also) out, but not too weak to allow them to screw with it to get back in, and I'm guessing that they will try. Wicked nice writing on your part and very much appreciated !!!!!!!!!!

That's nice - only one worry is if a mother squirrel leaves immature baby squirrels in the attic they will starve and rot. I read somewhere on the net that if a squirrel looks like it is going crazy trying to get back in then it might such a situation and it is better to let that squirrel in and out until all the young ones are able to get out on their own. Or sometimes the mother will try to move the babies. Or you can get into the attic yourself and check for babies.

The squirrel just happened to come out and leaped over to a tree and perched about 25 ft up on a branch to eat a acorn. I excused myself from the conversation and drew my 9mm ,aimed it to go right up through the branch where he was sitting. Down came the branch and the squirrel nearly cut in half. My neighbors thought I was John Wayne after that. A week or so later I installed a steel roof and boxed in the eaves with steel soffit also. No more squirrels in the attic since.

Keep a lookout for more holes into the attic because once they get inside they like it. I had to seal three holes one after the other.

[@ViralTuber]

I think if you drop a squirrel off 1000 miles away it won't come back. So your wildlife guy and I disagree on that point. I relocated some 5 miles away and got no indication they ever returned, meaning no more holes have ever been found. Havahart traps worked for me, so I recommend them. But if I owned a wildlife removal service I'd probably claim Havahart traps are worthless. I agree that if the squirrel is not removed from the area, it's likely he'll try again. I disagree that squirrels are like homing pigeons with no limit to their range. People post back saying this $5 device worked for them. Professional trappers swear it coudn't possibly.

Thanks. My problem turned out to be rats, not squirrels. I know because I've so far killed two of them in my Victor rat trap. Today I tried to seal the entrance hole with a metal cover. But the hole is set back about 3 feet from the edge of the roof, under the bottom end of an overhanging eve. This is up on the third story of my old house so my ass could be in great danger if I left the ladder to crawl up under there. The area is also on an angle. I tried using a broom handle to install a piece of metal with a friction fit. That didn't work. Maybe if I kept cutting the metal for a more precise fit. it might. But then I remembered my roofer who did my roofing job about a year ago, plus painting the trim at no extra charge. I called him up and asked him what he would want to do the hole cover. He said not to worry about it and he'd be over tomorrow to fix it. I think I'll recommend this guy.
