Close to Woodthorpe Park, grey squirrels are part of the neighbourhood. When one moves into your loft, we find the gap, treat and advise on proofing.
Woodthorpe is a north-eastern suburb built around Woodthorpe Park, mostly with inter-war and post-war semi-detached homes. Squirrels living in the park and its trees are used to people, and gardens in the surrounding streets are a short run away. A squirrel entering a semi usually finds a small weakness: a soffit gap above a back bedroom, a loose barge board or a cracked vent cover. Thumping in late afternoon can signal that it is returning to a nest.
We survey the exterior and loft, trace the activity and carry out treatment lawfully. Afterwards we recommend which repairs to carry out, and in what order. Seasonal timing matters, because a nest with young needs a more careful approach. Fixed cost pricing applies and there is no call-out charge, so there are no surprises when you book.
Squirrels in a park are common and not a problem by themselves. They become one when they find a way into a roof. Closing weak points reduces the chance of that happening.
As soon as you notice them. Chewing and nesting tend to cause more damage the longer they stay, and spring nests need extra care. We assess the situation when we visit.
Yes. They can chew timber, insulation and cables, and cable damage can be a fire risk.

When the evenings turn cold, the rats that have been living outside look for somewhere warmer. A semi next to a park can look very inviting indeed.
Read the advice →A cockroach in a family semi comes as a shock, and the first reaction is often embarrassment. They are far more often carried in than invited.
