Signs of infestation

How to tell if you have squirrels

✓Scratching, scurrying or rolling sounds in the loft — often during daytime

✓Chewed roof timbers, insulation, or water pipes in the loft space

✓Damaged bird feeders or bulb beds in the garden

✓Visible squirrel activity on the roof or in gutters

✓Droppings in the loft — similar to rat droppings but with pointed ends

Health & business risks

Why you can't ignore this

Grey squirrels cause serious structural damage in roof spaces — gnawing through roof timbers, insulation and crucially electrical cables, which is a significant fire risk. They can also gnaw through lead flashings causing water ingress. Note: grey squirrels are classified as a pest species under UK law — release after capture is illegal.
