Here are some great tips on how you can get rid of squirrels from your South Hudson home for sale on your own, without having to break your bank!

Block Their Entrance

Find out where the squirrels are entering into your South Hudson home’s attic and cover any holes so no more squirrels can get in, except for one so they can use it to exit your home. Cover your chimney with wire mesh if you have one so no more squirrels can get in. Also be sure to secure any openings from your attic to the rest of your South Hudson home so any panic stricken squirrels don’t try to flee into the rest of your home.

You want to make sure every possible entry point is blocked so they don’t regain entry once you have them out!

Create An Exit

Create a funnel out of metal or wire mesh and be sure the funnel is about 1 foot long, an about a foot wide. Attach the wide end of the funnel to the hole on the outside of your South Hudson’s home. Usually if the animal can leave out of the small hole, they will be able to re-enter as well, so just be careful. Try placing some food such as apple slices or peanuts at the hole of the opening to draw the squirrels out, or just wait for them to leave on their own to gather food.

Once they are out make sure to board up the hole or put mesh on it so that can’t regain entry.

Trapping Squirrels

You can usually find a trap at your local hardware store. When purchasing a trap for a squirrel please keep in mind that in a larger cage the squirrel may begin to panic and harm themselves. Usually a cage that is 6 inches, by 6 inches, by 18 inches will be perfect for a small animal like a squirrel. Read the directions that come with the trap and be sure you know how to set it properly!

Put some food in the cage that appeals to a squirrel such as peanut butter, apple slices, peanuts, soda crackers, or pieces of bread crust otherwise the squirrels may not even go near the trap. Make sure the food is placed far enough inside the cage so the animal can’t grab it through the sides.

Set it up, and wait for the trap to work its magic.

Catch, then Release

Once you have trapped the squirrel, you will need to release it. But first, be sure to check your South Hudson attic for baby squirrels. The babies will be helpless without their mother, and you will need to relocate them with her so they don’t die. The best thing for you to do is relocate them far away from your South Hudson’s home for sale in a wooded area where they can hopefully find their new home in a tree, rather than inside your attic.

Make sure you wear thick heavy gloves when you are releasing the squirrel from the trap. If the squirrel is angry, you wouldn’t want to get bit, or attacked. You can also use a string or rope to open the cage from a distance.

Make sure they don't come back

Be sure to keep the trap filled with food in your South Hudson attic for a few weeks longer to be sure all the squirrels have left your home. Patch up the holes in your home as well so they can’t try to re-enter. Try leaving your attic light on, or purchase some squirrel repellent from the store, rags soaked in household ammonia work too. Also, leaving a radio on in your attic, or purchasing an ultrasonic repellent may work for you as well.

Buying a home in South Nashua is exciting but can feel overwhelming. A thorough house inspection helps you feel confident and informed. It shows the true condition of a home before you commit. Knowing what to expect reduces stress and gives you the power to make smart decisions.

Hiring a professional home inspector is one of the most important steps in the home buying process. A skilled inspector can find issues that most people might miss. A strong inspection protects your investment and gives peace of mind.

Why Experience Matters

When choosing an inspector for your South Nashua home, ask about their experience. A knowledgeable inspector knows how to spot potential problems that could cost thousands. You do not want someone inexperienced who may overlook major items.

Most house inspection reports are twenty pages or longer. Buyers often use these reports to create a list of repairs to request from the seller. Sellers can also use the report to fix major issues before selling, making their South Nashua home more valuable. This usually leads to a smoother sale and happier buyers.

House Inspection Tips for Costs and Planning

Every home you consider will need a house inspection. Inspections typically cost three hundred to five hundred dollars and are non-refundable. Buyers should consider potential repair costs before making a final decision.

If the buyer and seller cannot agree on repairs, it may be best to move on and find another South Nashua home for sale. However, there is no guarantee the next home will have fewer issues. Buyers must balance logic and emotion when making these choices.

Tips for Older Homes

Many South Nashua homes have been lived in for years. Older homes naturally show wear and tear. Buyers expecting perfection may prefer new construction. If you focus too much on small repairs, you may miss a great home.

Sometimes it is better to buy a home warranty instead of insisting on all repairs. Home warranties are often under five hundred dollars. Some sellers may even cover the cost to close the deal smoothly.

Tips for Clear Communication

Not all inspectors explain their findings clearly. Phrases like “may in the future” or “could potentially” can cause confusion. Buyers may interpret this as a serious problem when the home is fine.

Always ask the inspector to clarify statements. Your real estate agent should attend the inspection. Agents can help you ask the right questions and interpret the report. Clear communication protects the deal and reduces stress.

House Inspection Tips for Repair Requests

The purpose of a house inspection is to reveal major issues, not minor cosmetic flaws. Buyers can ask for repairs, and sellers can accept or decline. Major repairs often include leaking roofs, plumbing failures, or structural issues. Minor items like leaky faucets or a worn door hinge are usually not addressed. Understanding this early keeps expectations realistic.

Tips to Protect Your Deal

Smart buyers ask questions throughout the inspection. They learn how systems operate, from light switches to water heaters. Being prepared helps avoid unnecessary worry about normal wear.

Your agent and inspector are your allies. They guide you and explain complex items. Their presence ensures you feel confident before closing on your South Nashua home.

Tips for Southern NH Buyers

Whether you are searching for South Nashua houses for sale or Southern NH houses for sale, these house inspection tips will help you navigate the process. Being informed and prepared makes buying a home less stressful and more enjoyable.

A thorough inspection helps you avoid surprises and protects your investment. It also ensures you understand the home you are buying and the value it offers.

When it starts to get cold outside bats may look to find comfort in your warm Southern NH home. I know how scary it can be to think the bats are going to harm you, or your family. What if they turn into vampires? You’ll be surprised to learn that vampires aren't real, and bats are actually harmless, and sometimes even cute. When they aren’t in your home, of course!!! Below are some suggestions to get rid of bats in your home.

There are about 40 different species of bats in the United States which can inhabit your Southern NH home for sale. The most common Bats found in North America are The Little Brown Bat, The Big Brown Bat, and The Mexican Free-Tailed Bat. Those are the three species of Bats that are most likely to reside in your home and likely in the attic.

Here are several different ways to keep bats out of your Southern NH home for sale:

Start by finding out how they are getting into your home!

If you have bats in your Southern New Hampshire home, they are getting in somewhere! Figure out where they are getting in, wire mesh, board up and close the area and set up a one way exclusion device to get them to leave your home. This is a small tube where bats can get out of your Southern NH home for sale but can not re-enter. Denying bats reentry is preferable to trapping them, because they are an endangered species and also because they can be dangerous.

Exclusion devices can be purchased online, or at a home improvement center! They are also fairly easy to install in your Southern NH home. 

Be Careful Not To Harm The Bats

There are many different species of bats that are endangered. Please be careful if you manually remove them from your Southern NH home yourself. If you harm the bats and anyone finds out about it, you could have a hefty fine to pay or face jail time. Make sure to always remember that bats are endangered and it is illegal to kill them.

Dispose of Any Waste They Create

Bat droppings are small round pellets called guano which can be harmful. The guano can grow a type of fungus that can cause the lung disease histoplasmosis in humans. Guano has a very powerful, musty smell that can often overpower your Southern NH house. The bat droppings and urine are corrosive to wood and metal, and can compromise the structural integrity of the building.  The droppings and the scent will lure in other animals and insects, so be sure to clean everything thoroughly. 

Call A Professional

If you are questioning whether it is bat guano or just don't know what it is call a pest professional. If you do not think you can remove the bats from your Southern NH home for sale safely and efficiently without harming them or yourself, please call a professional! Exterminators are trained and have the proper equipment. They can get rid of the bats safely and board up all the entrance points that they can squeeze through. And trust us when we tell you, they can get through some small openings.

1. Declutter Before You Move

Throw away, donate, or sell items you no longer use. Moving unnecessary belongings adds extra cost and stress. Clearing your home ahead of time saves money and makes packing easier.

2. Decide Between Hiring Movers or Moving Yourself

Interview several moving companies if you plan to hire movers. Consider their reputation, cost, and availability. If you move yourself, start planning early. Both options require preparation to avoid surprises.

3. Start Packing Early

Begin packing your belongings ahead of time to prevent last-minute stress. Label your boxes clearly to find important items quickly at your new South Nashua home. Ask friends or family to help if needed.

4. Use Up Food Before the Move

Consume freezer and pantry items before moving to reduce what you carry. Donate unused food to a local food pantry. This saves money and reduces waste while easing your moving load.

5. Transfer or Shut Off Utilities

Contact utility companies in advance to schedule shut-off or transfers. Some companies may charge fees, and transfers can take several days. Planning ahead prevents unnecessary delays at your new home.

6. Update Your Contact Information

Notify banks, insurance providers, schools, doctors, and credit card companies of your new address. Submit a change of address to the post office to avoid lost mail. Staying organized prevents future headaches.

7. Pack a Necessities Box

Include items like toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, chargers, snacks, water, a first aid kit, and tools. This box makes your first week in your new home easier and stress-free.

8. Keep Cash and Payment Options Ready

Unexpected purchases can come up during a move. Having cash or a card on hand allows you to handle last-minute items or emergencies. Always expect the unexpected.

9. Keep Important Documents Accessible

Carry passports, legal papers, financial documents, and valuables with you. Avoid packing them in moving boxes. Keeping these items secure prevents unnecessary stress, especially for out-of-state moves.

Moving is easier with support. Let friends and family assist with packing or lifting. Helping hands make the process smoother, and remember to return the favor when they need help.

Unfortunately, not everyone likes animals. If a buyer walks into your South Hudson NH home for a showing and it smells like urine, feces, or an animal in general, they will no longer be interested! Removing all signs of pets before your home is listed then selling it is the easiest route but not always possible. Be sure to clean your home before any showings and repair any damage your pet may have caused.

Before cleaning your home you should try to relocate your pet so no more accidents happen. Cleaning products can be very harmful and toxic to most pets, so you want to be careful with the choices since you wouldn’t want them getting sick and incurring vet bills that can be very expensive. Washing and vacuuming your rugs can remove any lingering odors left behind. Be sure to use something safe that is pet friendly just in case you need to move your pet back into your home, or just in case whoever buys your South Hudson NH home has pets too.

Be sure to clean your yard as well. If your animal has dug any holes in the ground fill them in so no one will get hurt. Many home buyers will ask to see your yard and walk around it. Also, most animals use the bathroom outside, even if they don’t, check your yard just to be safe that there are no landmines that a buyer might step in No one wants to step in dog poop, or see it for that matter. If they do, they may decide not to go back to your South Hudson NH home again if they feel it is a maintenance issue.

Once you have removed your pets, and cleaned your home and your yard you should be okay to set up showings at your home! Good Luck on your new journey selling your South Hudson home!

If you are looking to sell your South Hudson NH home and you have pets give our agents at Harmony Real Estate a call at (603) 883-8840 for more information. Or if you are looking to buy a home and have a pet we would love to find your dream home. We would love to help you on your journey.

Home maintenance can feel scary when you think about the cost. The good news is that DIY Home maintenance can help you fix small issues before they grow. These simple steps also help South Nashua houses for sale and Southern NH houses for sale stand out to buyers. You can keep your home safe, clean, and valuable without spending a fortune.

DIY Home Maintenance for Toilets

A leaking toilet wastes water and harms your bathroom floor. A quick way to check for leaks is by adding food coloring to the toilet tank. Use a bright color so you do not confuse it with anything else. If that color appears in the bowl, the toilet has a leak.

Most leaks come from a worn flapper. You can replace it with ease. First shut off the water supply behind the toilet. Remove the tank lid and flush the toilet to empty it. Use a towel to remove extra water. Then take off the old flapper and attach the new one. Connect the chain and turn the water back on. This small task protects your home and helps buyers feel confident when touring South Nashua houses for sale.

Faucets

A leaky faucet is annoying and costly. Most leaks come from worn washers inside the faucet handles. You can replace these washers in minutes. Turn off the main water supply before you begin. Remove the leaky handle and swap in a new washer. This simple DIY Home maintenance saves water and leaves your home feeling fresh and cared for.

DIY Home Maintenance for Washers and Dryers

Your washing machine needs attention to prevent water damage. Check the hot and cold water hoses for leaks or rust. Replace damaged hoses right away. Stainless steel hoses work better than plastic ones because they last longer.

Make sure the drain lines are tight by using pliers or a small wrench. Washing machine leaks cause major damage, so regular checks protect your home.

For your dryer, clean the lint screen often. This keeps the heating element working well and lowers fire risk. You can wash the lint screen with dish soap and water each week to remove softener buildup. Clean appliances are an easy DIY home maintenance to help Southern NH houses for sale shine during showings.

DIY Home Maintenance for Water Heaters

Few things feel worse than cold water in the shower. A water heater needs care to last longer and prevent damage. Sediment settles at the bottom of the tank and weakens it over time.

To clean it, turn off the water and power supply. Attach a garden hose to the drain valve and place the other end outside or in a sink. Turn on your hot water faucets, then open the drain valve. When the tank is empty, turn on the water with the drain still open so more sediment washes out. Close the valve and let the tank fill again. Turn the power and water back on. This simple task protects your home and adds peace of mind.

Drafty Windows

Drafty windows raise heating costs and lower comfort. Check the caulking around each window. If it is worn or cracked, remove it and apply a new bead of caulk. You can also add insulating window film to block cold air. If you replace windows, add insulation around the frame for extra warmth. These small DIY home maintenance changes help South Nashua houses for sale feel more energy efficient.

Gutters

Gutters protect your home from water damage. When they clog or loosen, water pools near your foundation. Clean your gutters by removing debris and rinsing them with a hose. If you see leaks or loose sections, fix or replace them right away. Gutter covers help reduce debris and save time throughout the year. Clean gutters keep Southern NH houses for sale in strong condition.

DIY Home Maintenance for Roof Care

Your roof shields your home from harsh weather. Check it often for worn or missing shingles. Replace damaged shingles to prevent leaks. Look closely around skylights and chimneys since these areas can let in water. Repair any loose flashing to protect the inside of your home. A strong roof gives buyers confidence and adds value to your property.

There can be challenges when it comes time to sell your fixer upper house. It can be more challenging to sell a home that needs a lot of work or updating, than a home that is in good repair. Most buyers want homes that have modern kitchens, spacious master bedrooms and updated bathrooms. Fixer uppers rarely have such amenities and need work.

The buyer will either need to have the time and be handy or have the extra money to pay to have the work completed. The key to successfully selling your fixer upper lies in reaching the right audience. With the right real estate agent this task will be much easier to accomplish.

Here are some tips on how to sell your fixer upper in South Hudson, New Hampshire:

1. Find a good agent to help you sell your South Hudson NH house. You can interview a few and decide who is the best fit. Make sure you ask your agent if they’ve sold houses that have needed to be fixed up before. The more experience they have, the easier it will be to sell your fixer upper.

2. Make sure you set a good price to sell your house, especially if it needs a lot of work. You don’t want it to be too high or buyers may pass it up. Your real estate agent will be able to help you set the best price to sell your home at. You want a South Hudson NH agent who will be able to guide you in the right direction and set the best price for your home.

3. Be honest about the flaws in your South Hudson NH house when you are selling. Disclosure is always in your best interest because if a buyer finds out about it after the fact they will want more off the price of the home. Your house may be subject to a home inspection before the sale is completed. So it is in your best interest to be clear about any repairs or maintenance from the onset that need to be taken care of so the buyers don't ask for further discounts.

4. Include headlines with your ads such as “Handyman Special”, “Big Savings For Handy Homeowners”, “A Diamond in the Rough”, “Beautiful Home for a Bargain” or other references to that explain that the home needs work. People want to know what they are getting into. If it’s just cosmetic work make sure to have your information worded properly.

5. If there is something wonderful about your house that you love, be sure to highlight that when you are selling. It might be a good reason for a buyer to love as well. Do you have acres of land, or a large basement that can be renovated to make a larger living space? Be sure to let potential buyers know this important information. That small muddy stream in the back yard that you love, or the giant birch tree that you sit under in the summer to get some shade, the location, or anything else you might love. Someone else is bound to fall in love with the same things as you! 

6. Property investors and contractors can be possible buyers for your fixer upper homes. They can buy the house for the bargain price you sell it for, fix it, and then use it as a way to make a profit by renting it out, or reselling it after they finish the work that it needs. You may even want to highlight the investment potential when placing ads about selling your house.
