Squirrels Can Cause Serious Damage — Act Quickly
Grey squirrels may look harmless, but inside your property they can be highly destructive.
In Hertfordshire, squirrels are a common pest in lofts, roof spaces, and outbuildings.
Risks of a squirrel infestation:
Chew through electrical wiring — serious fire hazard
Damage insulation, timber beams, and stored items
Contaminate loft spaces with droppings and urine
Spread fleas, ticks, and other parasites
