Humane squirrel removal service eliminating grey squirrel problems from lofts and properties. We trap and remove squirrels, repair damage, install proofing, and prevent re-entry, protecting your property from destructive activity and noise disturbance.
Grey squirrels in lofts and buildings cause significant damage through gnawing, create noise disturbance, and pose fire risks by chewing electrical cables. They also strip insulation and contaminate loft spaces with droppings and urine. Our professional squirrel removal service eliminates squirrel problems, repairs damage, and implements proofing measures to prevent re-entry and protect your property.
Grey squirrels seek loft spaces for nesting, particularly during breeding seasons in spring and late summer. They gain access through gaps in eaves, damaged soffits, or openings around pipes and cables. Once inside, they create nests using insulation and stored items. Their constant gnawing damages woodwork, pipes, and cables, while their activity creates noise disturbance, particularly at dawn and dusk.
We use professional trapping systems positioned in loft spaces and at entry points. Traps are checked regularly and removed squirrels are dispatched humanely in accordance with legal requirements. Note that grey squirrels are an invasive non-native species and UK law prohibits their release once caught. We continue trapping until no further squirrel activity is detected.
Following squirrel removal, we can repair damage including gnawed timbers, displaced insulation, and damaged cables. We also provide loft cleaning services to remove droppings, urine-soaked insulation, and nesting materials, eliminating health hazards and odors left by the infestation.
Critical to long-term success is preventing squirrel re-entry. We identify and seal all access points using wire mesh, metal plates, and other materials that resist gnawing. We also trim overhanging branches that provide roof access and advise on property modifications that discourage squirrel activity.
