Squirrel removal FAQ

How much does squirrel removal cost in Brampton?

Standard squirrel removal starts at $350 plus 13% HST. The base price includes one-way door installation, a follow-up visit, entry-point sealing, and repair of the squirrel damage. Baby squirrel removal adds $150, and extra damage repairs are $100 each.

How do you get squirrels out of an attic?

Sterex finds the active roof or soffit opening and installs a one-way door so the squirrels can leave but cannot return through that gap. A follow-up visit confirms the activity has cleared before the opening is sealed and the squirrel damage is repaired.

Is it legal to trap and relocate squirrels in Ontario?

Wildlife handling and relocation rules depend on the animal and circumstances. Review the Ontario wildlife removal guide, then use a professional inspection to choose a humane exclusion plan for the property.

What happens if there are baby squirrels?

Baby squirrels may need manual removal before the one-way door setup is completed. Baby squirrel removal is a $150 add-on to the standard service, before 13% HST.

How long does squirrel removal take?

Scheduling depends on when you call and whether a technician is available. If a technician is free, Sterex can schedule the first visit right away. The removal normally requires an installation visit and a follow-up visit so the squirrels can exit before the door is removed and the entry point is repaired.

Do you seal the squirrel entry point and repair the damage?

Yes. The standard $350 service includes follow-up sealing of the active entry point and repair of the squirrel damage. Extra damage outside the base scope is $100 per repair, before 13% HST.
