Are squirrels posing a danger to your home?
Moston Squirrel Trapping is the best way to remove squirrels from your home and property. The squirrel is a very invasive species that can cause extensive damage, transmit diseases, and be a general nuisance. A professional from our company will safely and effectively remove all squirrels from your home or property.
It is not a good idea to keep squirrels around the house. They must be dealt with early before they can cause extensive damage. Squirrels were introduced to the United Kingdom in the Victorian era. They have since shown how invasive they are by taking over many areas. Now, ranging in the millions from a couple of dozens, squirrels pose a severe threat to our environment and native species.
Squirrels transmit diseases, which can be dangerous to humans and pets. They also cause extensive property damage, especially to rafters and wooden support structures. Their chewing can weaken the structure of your home or business. Once you notice a squirrel, you can assume it won’t e long before they try to find an opening to get in, and when they can’t find an opening, they will damage many parts of the home, including windows and roofs. When they attempt to get in via the roof, they will cause the roof to have holes. This will allow other insects and rodents to come in, and more importantly, water can rush in during the rainy days causing a whole list of issues before they start causing damage in your home to speak to Moston Squirrel Trapping for our Moston Squirrel Pest Control service to ensure Squirrel Control.

Squirrel facts you ought to know if you have noticed them.
Grey squirrels are one of the most common mammals in Great Britain. They are native to the United States and Canada. Grey squirrels are typically about 18-24 inches long, including their tails. Their weight ranges between 1.5 and 3 pounds. Grey squirrels have two types of fur – a short, dense undercoat and longer guard hairs. This fur helps them stay warm in cold weather and manage their body temperature. Their fur varies from light to dark grey, but they sometimes have a brownish undertone. Squirrels have characteristic large ears and sharp teeth. They also have two scent glands on the underside of their tail, which they use to mark their territory.
Grey squirrels breed twice a year, in spring and autumn. Gestation lasts for around 44 days, and the babies (called kittens) are born blind and naked. They weigh approximately 2 grams at birth, and their eyes open after around 12 days. Kittens are weaned at around six weeks old and reach sexual maturity around the age of six months.
They communicate by making a variety of sounds, including chirps, barks and clicks. They also use body language, such as tail movements, to communicate. Grey squirrels are omnivores and eat a variety of things, including nuts, seeds, fruits, insects and other small animals. They store food in caches (hiding places) to eat later. Squirrels can be pests for farmers, as they can damage crops and trees.
In case your business or home is overrun with squirrels, you need to take action. In that case, it is vital to contact a professional pest control company as soon as possible. In most cases, the best solution is not on your own with DIY products – these are unlikely to work and could even exacerbate the problem. Instead, trust the experts at Moston Squirrel Squirrel Pest Control to take care of your squirrel control needs quickly and efficiently, so you can get back to life as usual. In addition, Moston Squirrel Trapping should e contacted early to avoid costly repairs.
