Squirrels in my attic [View all]

I think i have a problem :O My two cats continually stare at a corner of the ceiling in one room. Recently, I've been hearing the clattering of little feet on my roof too. I went outside to see if i could find any holes in the soffits, etc. The vents are all barricaded off from varmints, but i did find one area with a hole big enough for a squirrel to wiggle through. I think this is where they are getting in. This is so disheartening. I've lived in my home for 16 years. The first 10 were pretty much problem free, but now it's been an ongoing litany of problems: roof leaks, mold, termites, and now these frigging squirrels! It's just me and I don't know if i can handle all this anymore by myself (sorry for venting).

Anyway, has anyone ever had a squirrel removal done? We have lots of trees, as such, lots of squirrels. How much does it cost to do a squirrel fix?

Help!
