How do you get rid of grey squirrel?

I seem to have a few grey squirrel entering and exiting through my roof. I have tried metal fencing around the entrance but they went right around it.How do you get rid of grey squirrel?
You have to figure out how they are getting in and out of your attic, since even if you were to get rid of the squirrels something else would simply move in (in your case make sure there aren't multiple entrances).Remember squirrels are rodents and have the teeth to prove it any thin metal mesh is no problem to get through need to get the heavy duty stuff. Right now if they are in the attic there is a good chance they have young, in which case it would not be the best idea to remove the parents and plug the hole and might be another reason why they are being very persistent at getting in your attic. You should contact a local wildlife removal agency because finding the young can be quite some work and they need to be reunited with their parents asap after removal. As well, relocating a squirrel several miles away or to the park is not the solution. You are then placing the animal in an unfamiliar territory, risk spreading disease from one population to the next, put them in competition with the local squirrels, etc. All and all relocated squirrels have very, very low survival rates and at that point its more humane to simply euthanize rather than send them off to a prolonged death.

Probably the leading humane wildlife removal agency in North-America.How do you get rid of grey squirrel?
eat them , they are really good cooked in gravy , yumyum
Accually, call an exterminator. They cannot kill the squirrels, but they can make it so they can't come in, or tell you who to call to get it fixed.





They are probably trying to make a nest in your attic, it is spring and time for them to have babies. If you can get up there, look around and clean out any nest that they are building.
If I recall correctly, they hate moth balls. Put some moth balls up there and they will leave the same way they came in.
we had squrills going on our fence and putting nuts in are pool, so we put nails all across it, so they wouldnt walk on it. it was pretty intense and we usually woke up with dead squirells in are backyard, but hopefully it'll work for you..
