Expert Squirrel Control in Falmouth & Throughout Cornwall
Hearing scratching, gnawing, or scuttling in your loft or walls? If you're based in Falmouth or anywhere across Cornwall, you might be sharing your home or business premises with squirrels. While they might look charming in the garden, squirrels inside your property are a significant pest problem. They can cause extensive damage to wiring, insulation, and timber, creating fire hazards and expensive repairs. At Moorlander Pest Control, we provide professional, effective, and humane squirrel control services, drawing on over 20 years of experience in the pest management industry.
Why Choose Us?
Spotting the Signs of a Squirrel Problem in Your Home
Squirrels are naturally curious and persistent, often finding their way into lofts, wall cavities, and even sheds. How can you tell if you have an unwelcome guest? Look out for:
- Noises: Persistent scratching, gnawing, or scurrying sounds, especially in the early mornings or late evenings.
- Damage: Chewed wiring, timber, insulation, or even pipes. You might find shredded loft insulation.
- Droppings: Small, dark pellet-like droppings, often found in the loft or near entry points.
- Drey (Nest) Material: Piles of leaves, twigs, and insulation material in your loft space.
- Entry Points: Gaps or holes around eaves, fascias, roof tiles, or vents. Squirrels only need a small gap to squeeze through.
If you suspect you have a squirrel issue in your Falmouth property, it's crucial to act quickly.

Who We Are
Why Professional Squirrel Removal is Essential
Dealing with squirrels on your own can be challenging and often ineffective. DIY methods rarely provide a lasting solution and can even be dangerous, both for you and the animals. Squirrels can be aggressive when cornered, and their bites can be serious. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians are expertly trained in safe and humane squirrel control. With our 20 years of experience, we understand squirrel behaviour, their entry habits, and the most effective ways to remove them and prevent their return. We also hold a Marksman Qualification, allowing us to implement control methods that are both effective and humane, always in compliance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.

When you call Moorlander Pest Control about a squirrel issue in Falmouth, our approach is always comprehensive and responsible. We don't just deal with the immediate problem; we aim for a long-term solution.
- Thorough Inspection: We start with a detailed site inspection of your property to identify the type of squirrel (typically grey squirrels in the UK), assess the extent of the infestation, locate entry points, and determine harborage areas.
- Tailored Treatment Plan: Based on our inspection, we develop a customised plan using a range of humane and effective control methods. This might include the strategic placement of traps or other approved control measures.
- Removal & Proofing: Once the squirrels have been dealt with, the most critical step is prevention. We offer robust squirrel proofing services, sealing up all identified entry points to stop future access. This is vital to prevent repeat problems.
- Damage Assessment & Advice: We can advise on any damage caused and offer solutions for repair, along with tips to make your property less appealing to squirrels in the future.
