Expert Squirrel Control in North Tawton: Protecting Your Home

At Moorlander Pest Control, we have 20 years of experience providing effective, professional squirrel control services across Devon and Cornwall. We understand the unique challenges these agile pests present and are here to help you regain peace of mind.

Why Grey Squirrels Are a Nuisance in Your Property
Grey squirrels are more than just a noisy inconvenience. Once they gain access to your property, often through small gaps in the roofline or damaged vents, they can cause significant and costly damage. They constantly gnaw to keep their teeth sharp, often targeting electrical cables – a serious fire risk – as well as wooden beams, pipework, and insulation in your loft. They can contaminate areas with their droppings and urine, and their nesting habits can block gutters or damage roof structures. Dealing with a squirrel problem requires swift action and a qualified, professional approach to prevent further harm to your home or business.

Unsure if those noises are squirrels, rats, or something else? Here are common signs that you might have a squirrel problem in your North Tawton property:
- Persistent Noises: Listen for scratching, gnawing, and scuttling sounds, especially in the early morning or late evening, coming from your loft, walls, or even under floorboards.
- Visible Damage: Look for gnaw marks on wood (joists, rafters), plastic, electrical cables, or pipework. You might also notice torn insulation.
- Droppings: Squirrel droppings are typically dark, pellet-shaped, and larger than mouse droppings, often found in concentrated areas like the loft.
- Drey/Nest Material: You might find evidence of nesting materials – leaves, twigs, shredded insulation – in your attic or other secluded spaces.
- Sightings: Seeing squirrels frequently entering or exiting your roofline, fascia boards, or climbing walls can be a clear indicator.
