Humane, Effective & Family-Run Pest Control Solutions

If you've been hearing scratching, scurrying, or gnawing sounds in your loft or walls, you may have a grey squirrel infestation. These animals may look harmless, but when they invade homes or commercial properties, they can cause serious damage and disruption. At Malvern Pest Control, we offer professional squirrel removal services in Malvern, as well as across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucestershire.

As a family-owned local pest control business, we understand the stress of dealing with pests in your home or workplace. Our expert team uses safe, humane, and effective methods to remove squirrels and ensure they don’t come back.

Why Squirrel Control Is Important

Grey squirrels, introduced to the UK in the 19th century, are now considered a non-native invasive species. While they may seem cute, they pose several problems:

• Property Damage: Squirrels often enter lofts to nest, chewing through timber, insulation, and electrical wiring, increasing the risk of fire.

• Noise & Disturbance: They are noisy animals—especially at dawn and dusk—scratching and running around in roof voids.

• Health Concerns: While not as dangerous as rats, squirrels can still carry parasites and diseases that can contaminate your home.

• Legal Restrictions: Under UK law, grey squirrels caught in traps must not be released back into the wild—they must be dispatched humanely.

That’s why it’s essential to call in trained professionals who understand the legal and safe way to deal with squirrel infestations.

Signs You Have a Squirrel Infestation

Squirrels are most active during daylight hours, so if you’re hearing noises in the morning or during the day, it’s likely squirrels rather than rats or mice. Other signs include:

• Loud scurrying or scratching in the loft or cavity walls, especially early morning.

• Droppings similar to rats, but more rounded at the ends.

• Chewed wires, woodwork, or stored items in the loft.

• Nesting material such as leaves, insulation, and twigs brought indoors.

• Visible entry points around rooflines, broken tiles, or vents.

If you're not sure whether you're dealing with squirrels, our team can carry out a free survey to confirm and recommend the right solution.

Our Squirrel Removal Process

We use ethical, legal, and effective techniques to remove squirrels and prevent future infestations. Here’s how we do it:

1. Free Site Survey

Our pest control technician will inspect your property—typically the loft or roof area—to assess the level of activity, locate entry points, and understand the extent of damage.

2. Humane Trapping & Removal

We set specialist traps designed for squirrels, placed in strategic positions within the loft or access points. Traps are monitored regularly, and squirrels are humanely dispatched in compliance with UK wildlife law.

3. Entry Point Identification & Proofing

Once activity has stopped, we’ll seal entry holes using squirrel-proof materials—such as metal mesh or reinforced filler—to stop further access. This is a crucial step to prevent reinfestation.

4. Damage Assessment & Prevention Advice

Squirrels often cause significant damage to insulation, woodwork, and wiring. After removal, we advise on necessary repairs and offer tips on making your property less attractive to pests in future.

5. Follow-Up Checks

In more severe infestations, we may recommend follow-up visits to ensure full removal and peace of mind.

• Repair Roof Damage: Replace broken tiles or rotten wood near rooflines.
