Flying Squirrels
Flying squirrels don’t actually fly—they glide using skin flaps between their limbs. They:
- Feed on nuts, seeds, insects, and bird eggs
- Are nocturnal, often disturbing homeowners at night
- Nest in attics and create strong odors from urine
- Are not dangerous but can be persistent nuisances
Groundhogs / Woodchucks
Groundhogs, also called woodchucks, are burrowing members of the squirrel family. They:
- Are active during the day, especially spring and summer
- Dig large holes near fences, decks, or buildings
- Damage gardens and lawns extensively
- Can weaken structural foundations with deep burrows
