This species,\u00a0commonly found in New Jersey and the eastern United States, usually lives in forests and other natural outdoor areas. Since grey squirrels have little\u00a0fear of humans, it\u2019s not unusual to see them in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sternenvironmental.com\/blog\/2016\/03\/29\/eastern-grey-squirrels-thrive-in-new-york-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">urban areas<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n<p>Grey squirrels breed from\u00a0December to February and again from May to June. While female squirrels can\u2019t breed until they\u2019re at least a year old, males are extremely active during these periods. Breeding squirrels may even engage in mating dances.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Birth and Lifespan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the 44-day gestation period, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sternenvironmental.com\/blog\/2019\/07\/11\/squirrels-have-two-breeding-seasons-what-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pregnant squirrels<\/a> may become more aggressive. \u00a0Litters generally produce two to six squirrels, although there can be as many as eight babies. According to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, grey squirrels have an average lifespan of 1 to 2 years, but wild grey squirrels can live up to 10 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NJ Pest Control for All Creatures Great and Small<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Are bed bugs, mice, squirrels or other creatures\u00a0making themselves welcome at your home? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sternenvironmental.com\/about\/contact.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Contact Stern Environmental<\/a> for information about our comprehensive and cost-effective <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sternenvironmental.com\/about\/index.php#services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NJ pest control services<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When do Squirrels Have Babies?
