What to do right now
- 1. Keep people and pets away from the animal and, if it is inside living space, close interior doors to limit its range.
- 2. Do not touch or corner it — flying squirrels and several other local species carry disease risk, and a cornered animal defends itself.
- 3. Note where the noise or sighting is (attic, wall, chimney, under a deck) — it is the first thing a provider will ask.
- 4. Do not seal any hole yet. Trapping an animal inside a wall turns a removal into a demolition.

What happens when you call
Your call is routed to an independent wildlife removal provider or partner call center covering the Roswell area. That provider — not this site — determines availability, pricing, and scope of work. Most jobs start with an on-site inspection: finding the entry points, identifying the species, then removing or excluding the animal and sealing the structure. Pricing depends on species, number of entry points, accessibility, and whether cleanup or repairs are needed — typical ranges are in the cost guide.
Georgia rules that affect your job
Georgia is more permissive than Ohio or Virginia: permitted operators may release wildlife into suitable habitat with landowner permission within 72 hours. But rabies-vector animals involved in any bite or scratch incident go through health-department screening first.

Roswell wildlife FAQs
Could there really be a whole colony of flying squirrels in my Roswell attic?
Yes — unlike gray squirrels, flying squirrels are colonial, and winter groups of a dozen or more in one attic are routine on wooded Roswell lots. Colony size is why exclusion here must be gapless, down to quarter-sized openings.
Does my pest control company’s license cover wildlife removal in Georgia?
No. Georgia treats wildlife work as a separate credential: a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator permit from DNR, with its own written exam. The Structural Pest Control Act license covers insects and rodents, not raccoons, bats, or squirrels.
