Ground Squirrel Control in Temecula and Murrieta
Restrictions
The California ground squirrel is common throughout California and cause damage in urban settings and rural settings.
Some control methods and materials can only be used by a certified or licensed pesticide applicators. For homeowners who do not wish to hire a professional, options with fewer restrictions include repellents, exclusion, habitat modification, some methods of fumigation, and trapping. However, not all of these options are necessarily effective management strategies.
Comparing Efficiency
Different factors influence the efficiency of a control method. Management plans should incorporate site-specific variables such as cost, labor, and potential restrictions (e.g. proximity to structures, risks to non-targets, restricted use materials, etc).
