Squirrel Pest Control FAQs

We address top questions to help users make informed decisions.

Yes. Grey squirrels can cause structural damage by chewing wood, wires, insulation, and pipes, increasing fire and water damage risks. They also bring parasites and their urine and droppings pose health hazards.

No. Under UK law, grey squirrels are an invasive species and cannot be relocated. Humane extermination or exclusion by licensed professionals is required.

We use approved techniques such as one-way doors, live traps, and exclusion materials. Our technicians are certified and adhere to wildlife control regulations, ensuring humane and compliant treatment.

Typically within a few visits: one for survey, one for treatment, and one follow-up for monitoring and proofing. Timeframes vary by infestation severity and property complexity.

Squirrels are agile climbers, capable of entering roof spaces from trees or chimneys. Their nests are well hidden, and they’re cautious about traps. Effective control requires skilled exclusion and proofing.

Trim overhanging trees, maintain gutters and roofline, seal gaps, avoid leaving shelters or food accessible. This reduces attractions and access points. Professional advice and maintenance plans help too.

Absolutely. We work with homeowners, landlords, and businesses across London & the South East, offering discreet, flexible services that minimize disruption and protect your reputation.
