Why Choose Us?
Is That a Squirrel in Your Loft? Common Signs to Look For
Often, the first sign of a squirrel problem is the noise. Listen for scratching or scurrying sounds in your attic, walls, or even chimneys, particularly at dawn and dusk when they are most active. You might also spot droppings – small, dark pellets similar to rat droppings but often more varied in size. Look out for gnaw marks on timbers, exposed electrical cables, or pipework, as well as disturbed or shredded insulation material. An unusual, musky smell from urine can also indicate their presence. Identifying these signs early can save you significant time and money on repairs.

Who We Are
Beyond Noise: Why Squirrel Infestations Need Professional Attention
Squirrels are not just noisy guests; they pose significant risks to your property. Their strong jaws and constantly growing teeth mean they gnaw almost continuously. This can strip electrical wiring, creating a serious fire hazard, and damage vital pipework, leading to leaks. They also destroy insulation, impacting your home's energy efficiency and increasing your heating bills. Furthermore, their droppings and urine can contaminate areas, posing potential health risks and attracting other pests. Dealing with a squirrel problem yourself is difficult and often ineffective, as they are intelligent and persistent creatures.
