Grey squirrels have a natural instinct to gnaw on hard materials to keep their teeth sharp. In a domestic or commercial loft, this often leads to them chewing through electrical wiring, which poses a severe fire hazard. They are also known to strip insulation for nesting material and damage timber joists, compromising the structural integrity of your roof.Beyond the physical damage, squirrels carry various parasites and can contaminate your water tanks with droppings or carcasses. By acting quickly and calling Pest Medic on 01254 963737, you can prevent these hazards from becoming a reality. Our environmentally-conscious methods focus on treating the root cause, ensuring your home in Westhoughton remains a safe and healthy environment.
