Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Virginia

We live in a townhome. A squirrel entered our attic from a hole made by a squirrel from the outside of the neighbor�s roof. The squirrel entered the neighbor�s attic via the roof hole and ate their way over to our attic. The squirrels have nested in both attics. Our roof�s surrounding wood frame is fortified with metal over the wood so the squirrels can�t chew I but our neighbor�s wood is exposed and allowed the squirrel�s to chew a hole to the inside. Who is liable for the trapping, waste clean up and repairs?
