You built a beautiful home. A squirrel built one INSIDE it.
This is what we found hiding inside a balcony downspout in a subdivision — an active squirrel nest, nesting material, and yes… we could HEAR it in real time.
Builders often leave downspouts completely open at the base. That's all the invitation a squirrel needs to move in above your front door soffit.
The fix? Close both entry points + install a humane one-way door so the animal can leave — but never come back.
If you have a raised balcony with an open downspout, you could have a guest you didn't invite. Let Icon Pest check it out before the damage gets worse.
