In the western part of the United States, ground squirrels normally do not go into
a deep hibernation mode like groundhogs and prairie dogs during the winter
months.
Ground squirrels will emerge during fair weather or after short periods of warmer
winter weather.
During the hottest days of the summer, most adult ground squirrels will retreat
into the burrows to “estivate”. This estivation period may last a few days or up
to 30 or more days, depending on the heat and drought conditions.
Performing applications during the ground squirrels “summer dormancy” is
extremely effective.
