Grey squirrels are known to carry a variety of diseases, some of which can be spread to humans. These diseases include tularemia, plague, salmonella and leptospirosis.

Apart from the listed diseases they can spread, they are mostly known for extensive property damage. Squirrels usually make their way onto your roof by using branches and trees, but this is not always the case as squirrels are excellent climbers. Once they are elevated on your roof, they will chew away at your shingled or thatched roof to make way for them to enter, leaving holes so rain can penetrate, and that results in dampness and water damage due to water seeping in. All this can be avoided if you act early and ring Broadbottom Squirrel Pest Control.

They will (once inside) chew on insulation, hardwood, and even floorboards for materials to build their nest or even to wear down the incisors that never stop growing. These teeth develop at about 6 inches per year, so really, they have to file them unknowingly. They will chew on electrical wires or power lines, which has disastrous effects on electrical appliances or, worse, fires. Squirrels often strip wood from support structures, making them weak to the point of collapse, thus making Squirrel Control imperative.
