Why Choose Us?
Is That Scurrying in Your Loft a Squirrel Problem?
Grey squirrels, while seemingly charming in gardens, can become a real nuisance and cause significant damage when they invade your home or business premises. They're often drawn to lofts and roof spaces, seeking shelter and warmth. Common signs of a squirrel infestation include loud scratching, especially in the morning and evening, gnawing sounds, and visible droppings or urine stains. They frequently damage electrical cables, insulation, wooden beams, and pipework, which can lead to costly repairs and even fire hazards. Don't let a small noise turn into a major problem – early intervention is key.

Who We Are
Why Professional Squirrel Removal is Essential
Attempting DIY squirrel removal often leads to frustration and can even worsen the problem. Squirrels are agile, intelligent, and can be aggressive when cornered. Furthermore, mishandling traps or bait can be dangerous for you, your family, or non-target wildlife. Our professional squirrel control service goes beyond simple trapping. We conduct a thorough inspection to identify how squirrels are getting into your property, locate nesting sites, and assess the extent of the infestation. Our expert knowledge means we implement targeted solutions that are both effective and compliant with UK wildlife laws. As BPCA affiliated members, we adhere to the highest industry standards for safe and responsible pest management.

At Moorlander Pest Control, we pride ourselves on our responsible and effective squirrel management. As subscribers to the CRRU (Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use) code of practice, we ensure all our rodent control methods, including for squirrels, are carried out with the utmost care for the environment and non-target species. Our approach typically involves strategic placement of specialist, humane traps. Once caught, we ensure the swift and humane dispatch of grey squirrels, which are classified as an invasive species under UK law, meaning they cannot be released back into the wild once trapped. Our team holds a Marksman Qualification, ensuring precise and humane action where required. After removal, we provide expert advice and implementation of proofing measures to prevent future invasions.
