Scratching in the loft or squirrels entering the roof? Get investigation, grey squirrel control and proofing advice across Wirral, Liverpool and Chester.
I’m Neil Withington, your local pest controller. I’ll check the evidence and species before recommending a plan—noise alone does not identify the animal.
Roof-level sightings, gnawed openings and disturbed insulation can justify an inspection. Note when and where activity occurs. Photographs taken safely from ground level can help.
I inspect accessible activity areas and possible entry routes. Concealed damage or difficult roof access may need additional equipment or a roofer. Gnawed wiring needs a qualified electrician; do not touch damaged cables.
Do not block a hole while animals or dependent young may remain inside. Proofing follows assessment and appropriate control. If the species is uncertain, identification comes before trapping.
Call 07859 805336 or send your postcode, where activity occurs and any photographs taken safely from ground level.
The proposed method, access, welfare precautions and visit requirements are explained before work starts. Grey squirrel control may involve professional trapping, including lethal methods where appropriate. This is not a relocation service.
Grey squirrels must not be released into the wild. See the Forestry Commission guidance. Suspected protected wildlife needs a different assessment.
Once appropriate, mesh or repairs can reduce access through identified openings. Proofing is quoted separately where needed; roof or electrical repairs may require another contractor.
New entry routes can develop later. Report fresh activity or damaged barriers so the property can be reassessed.
The quotation depends on activity, access, visits and any proofing. You’ll receive the total including VAT, what is covered and separate charges before work begins. See the price guide.
For rented or commercial buildings, confirm who can arrange access and authorise repairs.
