Often thought of as cute & fluffy, having squirrels take up residence in your home can present serious problems. As well as the damage they cause to property, common grey squirrels carry diseases and measures should be taken to remove them from your home as soon as possible.
Like rats and mice, squirrels can be a problem in many parts of the house, but typically, the most common issue occurs when they decide to invade your loft or attic.

As a local, highly experienced pest control company in Ware, we’ll visit your property and attend to your issues quickly and effectively.

Spotting the signs of squirrels in your home
- Droppings and Urine: Droppings in your loft or attic, usually larger than rat droppings. Smell of urine in the loft area can also indicate an infestation.
- Increase in sightings: With the signs above, if this is accompanied by an increase in the number of squirels spotted around your property, particularly near your roof, this could be an indication of a serious infestation.
Potential damage caused by squirrels
Grey Squirrels can cause a great deal of damage if they enter the roof space of your home. With their habit for chewing and gnawing, once inside your attic, squirrels can easily chew through wires, strip through insulation and wood, and potentially contaminate cold water tanks with their urine and droppings. Squirrels are most active before sunrise, especially in winter. If you believe you have a problem with squirrels in your home, then get in touch for quick and effective remedies.
Common UK Squirrels
In the UK the most common is the Grey Squirrel which originated from North America and unfortunately now compete with our native Red Squirrel whose population has decreased extensively. There is another rarer breed known as the Black Squirrel, found mainly in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire & Cambridgeshire. Being in much fewer numbers and found mainly in rural areas, they are much less of a pest.
