Squirrel Removal in Providence
Licensed Wildlife Exclusion for Providence Homes & Commercial Properties
Gray squirrels are the most common attic intruder in Providence, and once they’re inside, the damage compounds quickly. Chewed electrical wiring creates fire hazard conditions. Torn insulation loses its thermal value. Soffit and fascia entry points widen with every passing season. Encon LLC has been solving exactly these problems since 2006. We have now served Rhode Island residential and commercial properties for 20 years with licensed squirrel removal backed by a one-year exclusion warranty and a money-back guarantee.
We serve both homeowners and businesses throughout Providence. Same-day service is available when the situation is urgent, and every job starts with a free, no-obligation quote.

Signs of a Squirrel Infestation in Your Home
Squirrels can be subtle intruders, but they leave behind clear evidence. Recognizing the signs early limits the damage and narrows the scope of repairs.
- Noises in Walls or Attic: Scratching, scurrying, or chewing sounds, especially in the early morning or evening when squirrels are most active, are often the first indicator.
- Visible Entry Points: Chewed holes in siding, soffits, fascia boards, or vents are common access points worth a close look.
- Damaged Insulation: Squirrels tear up attic and crawl space insulation to build nests, leaving it compressed and thermally ineffective.
- Droppings and Nests: Squirrel droppings or nesting materials, such as leaves, twigs, and shredded paper, in the attic confirm an active presence.
- Chewed Wiring: Frayed or chewed electrical wires are a serious fire hazard and a sign of a rodent problem that needs immediate attention.
If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait. A squirrel infestation can escalate into structural damage and genuine safety risks. The sooner removal and exclusion work begins, the better.
Our Squirrel Control Process: Inspection Through Exclusion
Our approach is investigative, not reactive. Rather than setting a trap and calling it done, our owner and trained technicians trace the infestation to its source, identify entry points, and seal the structure after removal. That thoroughness is exactly what the one-year exclusion warranty is built on.
The process follows four stages:
- Inspection and Assessment: We conduct a detailed property inspection to locate nesting sites, map entry points, and evaluate the full extent of the infestation before any trapping begins.
- Humane Trapping and Removal: We use humane trapping methods and one-way exclusion doors that allow squirrels to exit while blocking re-entry, all in accordance with Rhode Island wildlife guidelines.
- Exclusion and Sealing: Identified access points are sealed with durable, chew-resistant materials. This step separates a lasting solution from a temporary fix and is covered by our one-year exclusion warranty.
- Cleanup Recommendations: We assess contaminated insulation, chewed structural materials, and any wiring concerns, then provide remediation recommendations so your property can be fully restored.
Why DIY Squirrel Removal Falls Short
Squirrels bite and scratch when cornered, and handling them without proper protective equipment and training puts both the homeowner and the animal at risk. That’s the immediate concern. The deeper problem is that a single trap rarely resolves a full infestation.
Our technicians identify entry points and confirm the animals are out before sealing the structure. Without that confirmation, sealing entry points can trap animals inside. That creates a different set of problems. We’re also trained to identify chewed wiring and assess fire hazard conditions that most homeowners wouldn’t think to inspect for during a DIY removal.
For commercial property owners, the stakes are higher still. A squirrel presence in a restaurant, warehouse, or office building can create liability exposure and potential health code issues. We serve businesses of all sizes throughout Providence and tailor each removal and exclusion plan to the specific demands of the property.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do You Get Squirrels out of an Attic?
We use humane trapping and one-way exclusion doors that allow squirrels to exit but not re-enter. After confirming they’re out, our technicians seal entry points with durable, chew-resistant materials and back the exclusion work with a one-year warranty.
Is Your Squirrel Removal Method Safe for Pets?
Yes. We place traps strategically and use techniques that minimize risk to domestic animals, helping protect your household throughout the process.
What Does It Cost to Remove Squirrels?
Cost depends on the severity of the infestation and the number of entry points that need sealing. We provide free, no-obligation quotes after a thorough inspection, and 12-month, no-interest financing is available if needed.
How Do You Stop Squirrels from Coming Back?
After removal, we identify and seal potential access points using chew-proof materials. That exclusion work is covered by a one-year warranty. If squirrels re-enter through a point we sealed, we return at no charge.
Do You Handle Squirrel Removal for Commercial Properties?
Yes. We serve businesses of all sizes throughout Providence, including restaurants, offices, and warehouses. Commercial infestations carry liability and health code concerns that go beyond what a residential job involves. We account for those factors during the inspection and build a removal and exclusion plan suited to the property’s specific needs.
