Living in the Southeastern states of Georgia, Florida, and Alabama, everyone is well aware of the squirrel population. There is not a single day that passes you do not see one of these hyperactive rodents scampering around the yard. Whether they are gathering food or seemingly just running off energy, they are common fare within the South.
According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources: Wildlife Resources Division , there are two popular squirrel breeds located in this area: the grey squirrel and the fox squirrel. These two native squirrel breeds find hardwood and oak tree forest and wooded areas a favorite habitat, which is also the traditional landscape of the Southeast.
While squirrels are common in this area, they have an uncommon ability to cause havoc and destruction to your yard and home. Grey and fox squirrels diet consist of mostly nuts, seeds, plants, with small amounts of animal and insect matter. Often squirrels will dig for fallen tree nuts leaving behind little holes throughout your yard and destroying landscaped areas. Additionally, attics in homes are a favorite refuge for these pesky rodents.
