Professional squirrel control for lofts, roof spaces and buildings across Somerset, Devon and Dorset. We investigate scratching noises, gnawing damage and signs around the roofline, identify the animal and assess likely access points before recommending appropriate control. We also advise on repairs and proofing to help reduce repeat access. Explore domestic pest control or discuss squirrel activity at your property.
Our Squirrel Control Process
1. Inspection & Identification
We inspect the property to establish where squirrels are active and identify likely access points into lofts, roof spaces and other areas.
2. Professional Control
Once we understand the extent of the problem, we determine an appropriate professional control strategy for the property.
3. Prevention & Advice
We identify vulnerable areas around the roofline and advise on repairs or proofing that may help prevent squirrels gaining access again.
