Squirrel Pest Control & Removal

It’s clear that squirrels are a pest more difficult to get rid of than most, but the team at Mavis Pest Control are experienced in dealing with them. Whether you’re in the north, south, east or west of the UK, we can come to you and ensure that the squirrel problem in your home is eradicated. As soon as you notice any tell-tale signs such as droppings, damage or the sounds made by them moving around in the loft, let us know so you can avoid dealing with their aggression by yourself.

We use traps and poisons to deal with squirrels, as it is illegal in the UK to catch one and release it back into the wild. We are therefore obliged to dispatch it, which we do as humanely as possible. Once all the animals have been removed, we begin repair work and ensure that the access points they were using are blocked off to prevent a reoccurrence of the problem.

Removing & Proofing Against Squirrels

Squirrels are a pest that many have complicated feelings about. Although they’re cute and perceived as essentially harmless, we know that the common grey squirrels carry diseases and were responsible for almost completely wiping out the native British red squirrel. Regardless of how you see them, there is no doubt that they present a problem to homeowners.

The most common issue that people have with squirrels occurs when they decide to nest in the loft space. Once this has happened, the area becomes their territory and they will act aggressively towards anyone who attempts to move them, especially if they have babies in the nest. If you try and block their access point, they will attack the blockage until they get in.
