A squirrel is perched on landscape edging beside a mulched bed and dry grass, indicating active wildlife presence near a home's yard in McKinney, Texas.

A squirrel is observed along landscape edging beside a mulched bed in the exterior yard in McKinney, Texas during September. Squirrels can chew entry points, gnaw wiring, and contaminate attics with droppings if activity escalates. Professional wildlife control, humane trapping, and sealing of gaps are recommended to prevent access and protect the home.
