What Our Customers Are Saying
Real reviews from real customers across the North Shore
Ryan at Safer Nature was wonderful to work with. We knew we had a critter problem, but weren't sure exactly what. Ryan responded promptly to my phone call & came out to our property that afternoon. He determined our problem immediately (flying squirrels)
Samantha D. - Google Review
Ryan and his team are fantastic! I reached out letting him know I was having an issue with squirrels in my attic and he reassured me that it was something he would be able to resolve. He came out in a timely manner to look at the issue and was quickly able to identify where they were coming in. He fully explained to me what he would need to do to resolve the issue. He is honest, personable and has a wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend this company if you need any type of pest removal. I assure you that you won't be disappointed.

Our Proven Squirrel Control Process
A systematic approach that delivers lasting results for North Shore homeowners
1
Thorough Inspection
We start with a comprehensive inspection of your property, both interior and exterior. Our technicians will identify all signs of squirrel activity, locate nesting areas, and find every potential entry point. We’ll also assess the extent of the infestation to develop the most effective treatment plan.
2
Customized Treatment Plan
Based on our findings, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your specific situation. We’ll explain our recommended approach, answer all your questions, and ensure you’re comfortable with every step before we begin. Our plans combine safe removal methods with targeted treatments designed specifically for squirrels.
3
Active Removal
We’ll implement strategic removal protocols to safely and humanely eliminate squirrels from your property. Our technicians use proven techniques and the latest wildlife control tools to ensure effectiveness while maintaining safety for your household.
4
Entry Point Exclusion
Here’s where we go beyond typical pest control. We’ll seal all identified entry points using professional-grade materials that squirrels cannot chew through. This includes gaps around vents, eaves, rooflines, chimneys, and any openings large enough for a squirrel to enter.
5
Sanitation & Prevention
We’ll help you address conditions that may be attracting squirrels and provide recommendations for long-term prevention. This includes guidance on securing attic spaces, trimming tree branches near the home, and managing potential food sources to keep squirrels away for good.
6
Follow-Up & Monitoring
We’ll schedule follow-up visits to monitor the situation, check for any new activity, and ensure our exclusion work is holding up. We stay in touch until we’re confident your home is completely squirrel-free, and we’re always just a phone call away if you have any concerns.
Signs You Need Professional Squirrel Control
Don’t wait until the problem gets worse. Watch for these common warning signs:
Chewed Wood or Wires
Squirrels constantly gnaw to keep their teeth healthy. Look for chew marks on rooflines, attic beams, rafters, or exposed wiring.
Scratching or Scampering Noises
Scratching, thumping, or scampering sounds in attics, walls, or ceilings—especially early morning or evening when squirrels are most active.
Nesting Materials
Shredded insulation, paper, or fabric in attics, chimneys, or crawl spaces—squirrels build nests in secluded, high areas.
Droppings
Small, dark droppings often found in attics, attics vents, or along walls where squirrels travel.
Grease or Rub Marks
Dark smudge marks along rafters, beams, or entry points where squirrels repeatedly brush against surfaces.
Unusual Pet Behavior
Cats or dogs pawing at walls, staring at attics or vents, or acting unusually alert in certain areas of your home.
Visible Squirrels
Seeing squirrels inside your attic, crawl space, or even entering the home during the day almost always indicates a serious infestation.
Damage or Stains from Urine
Squirrels may leave urine stains near nests or along their travel paths, which can create odors and hygiene concerns.
If you've noticed any of these signs in your Amesbury home, don't delay.

Expert Squirrel Control for Amesbury & North Shore Communities
When temperatures drop and North Shore winds pick up, squirrels start looking for warm, safe places to spend the winter—and unfortunately, that often means your Amesbury home or attic. At Safer Nature Pest Control, we’ve been protecting local homes and businesses from squirrel infestations for years, and we understand the unique challenges that come with wildlife control in coastal Massachusetts.
From the historic homes of downtown Amesbury to the coastal properties of Salisbury and Newburyport, from the sprawling neighborhoods of Haverhill to the charming communities of Beverly and Salem, we’ve seen it all. Our experience across the North Shore has taught us that every property is different, which is why we never use a one-size-fits-all approach.
Why Squirrels Love North Shore Homes
The North Shore presents unique challenges when it comes to squirrel control. Our coastal location means we experience seasonal weather that drives squirrels to seek shelter indoors. Many of our beautiful historic homes have construction features that, while charming, provide numerous entry points for squirrels. Rooflines, attics, chimneys, and older construction methods all make it easier for squirrels to find their way inside.
Additionally, our proximity to the Merrimack River, various salt marshes, and wooded conservation land means there’s no shortage of squirrels in the outdoor environment. When fall arrives and natural food sources become scarce, these squirrels start seeking safe shelter—and your warm, food-accessible home becomes extremely attractive.
The Safer Nature Difference in Amesbury & Beyond
What sets Safer Nature Pest Control apart from other wildlife control companies serving the North Shore? It starts with our commitment to safe, environmentally responsible, and humane solutions. We believe you shouldn’t have to choose between effective squirrel removal and the safety of your family and pets. Our methods are proven to remove squirrels while minimizing environmental impact.
We’re also deeply invested in our local communities. We live here, work here, and raise our families here. When you call Safer Nature Pest Control, you’re not getting a faceless corporation—you’re getting your neighbors, people who care about the North Shore as much as you do.
