Professional Grey Squirrel Control in Lancashire

Grey squirrels can cause serious problems when they get into lofts, roof spaces, wall cavities or outbuildings. Once inside, they may damage insulation, chew timber or cables, create noise and leave droppings or nesting material behind.

Wallace Pest Control provides professional grey squirrel control across Lancashire, helping homeowners, landlords and businesses deal with squirrel activity safely and effectively.

Our service starts with an inspection to identify how squirrels are entering the property, where they are active and what damage may have been caused. We can then advise on the most suitable treatment and proofing steps to help reduce the risk of the problem returning.

If you are hearing scratching, scurrying or banging noises from your loft or roof space, call Wallace Pest Control on 07496 680879 or complete the enquiry form.

    Our Squirrel Control Process & Pricing

    When grey squirrels get into a loft or roof space, the issue is not just the noise. Squirrels can damage insulation, chew timber or cables, create mess and continue using the property if entry points are not dealt with properly.

    Wallace Pest Control provides a professional squirrel control service designed to deal with the immediate activity and advise on practical steps to reduce the risk of the problem returning.

    Our squirrel control service includes:

    • Thorough inspection: we check the loft, roofline and external access points to understand how squirrels are getting in and where they are active.
    • Professional squirrel control: we use legal, approved equipment and suitable methods for grey squirrel control. Grey squirrels cannot simply be trapped and released elsewhere.
    • Monitoring and adjustments: we check activity, reassess placements where needed and adapt the approach based on what is happening at the property.
    • Minor proofing included: we seal small entry points where practical. If larger repairs are needed, such as soffit work or roof tile replacement, we will explain what needs attention.
    • Report and recommendations: we provide advice on what was found, what was done and any further proofing or repair work that may be needed.

    Price: £240 for 3 visits, including a full proofing survey.

    Extra visits: £60 each, where required.

    Signs You May Have Squirrels in Your Loft

    Grey squirrels can be noisy and destructive once they get into a loft, roof space or outbuilding. They are often most active during the day, particularly early morning and late afternoon, so the timing of the noise can help distinguish them from other pests.

    Common signs of squirrel activity include:

    • Heavy scurrying or banging noises: squirrels can sound louder and faster than rats or mice, especially when moving across loft spaces or roof timbers.
    • Noises during daylight hours: scratching, running or thumping sounds in the morning or late afternoon can indicate squirrel activity.
    • Chewed cables, timber or insulation: squirrels gnaw constantly and may damage electrical cables, roof timbers, stored items and loft insulation.
    • Damaged entry points: gaps around rooflines, soffits, fascia boards, vents or damaged lead flashing may show where squirrels are getting in.
    • Droppings or nesting material: squirrel droppings, shredded insulation, twigs, leaves or nesting material in the loft can indicate an established problem.
    • Visible squirrels around the roof: squirrels repeatedly climbing walls, fences, trees or rooflines may be accessing the property.

    If you suspect squirrels are in your loft or roof space, it is best to act quickly. The longer they remain inside, the more damage they can cause and the harder the problem may be to resolve.

    Squirrel Control FAQs

    1What Causes Squirrels to enter my house?

    Grey squirrels usually enter properties looking for shelter, nesting space or a safe place to raise young. They commonly get into lofts and roof spaces through gaps around rooflines, soffits, fascia boards, vents, loose tiles or damaged areas of the building.

    2How Can I Prevent Squirrels Entering My Property?

    The best prevention is to identify and seal entry points once the squirrel activity has been dealt with. This may include repairing gaps around the roofline, replacing damaged soffits or fascia boards, checking vents and trimming overhanging branches where squirrels may be accessing the roof.

    3How Do I Know If It’s Squirrels?

    Squirrels are often active during the day, especially early morning and late afternoon. You may hear heavy scurrying, scratching, thumping or banging noises in the loft or roof space. Other signs can include chewed insulation, damaged timbers, droppings, nesting material or visible squirrels accessing the roofline.
