Squirrel Control
If You Can Hear Squirrels In Your Loft, The Damage Has Already Started
Squirrels may look harmless outdoors, but once they gain access to your property, they can cause extensive damage in a surprisingly short period of time.
Act quickly before squirrels destroy insulation, chew electrical wiring, and create costly structural damage within your loft space. Valkor provides rapid response squirrel control services, combining targeted removal, entry point proofing, and long term prevention solutions to protect your property.
The Cost Of Ignoring A Squirrel Infestation
Many property owners mistake squirrels in the loft for minor noise issues.
In reality, squirrels are one of the most destructive wildlife pests found in UK properties. Their constantly growing teeth require continuous gnawing, leading them to chew timber, insulation, pipework, and electrical cables.
Left untreated, a squirrel infestation can quickly become a significant safety risk.
Common risks associated with squirrels:
-
1
Severe damage to loft insulation.
-
2
Chewed electrical cables creating fire hazards.
-
3
Damage to roof structures, fascias, and soffits.
-
4
Persistent noise, especially during early mornings.
-
5
Nesting materials blocking ventilation areas.
-
6
Increased repair costs the longer the infestation remains active.

Your most common questions answered
How do squirrels get into lofts?
Squirrels commonly enter through damaged roof tiles, gaps around soffits, fascia boards, roof vents, and other small openings. Once they discover a suitable access point, they often return repeatedly.
Are squirrels dangerous to my property?
Yes. Squirrels can cause extensive damage by chewing electrical wiring, timber, pipework, insulation, and roofing materials. They can also create potential fire hazards.
Can squirrels return after treatment?
Without proper proofing, squirrels may attempt to regain access. This is why Valkor focuses on identifying entry points and providing long term prevention solutions alongside removal.
What should I do if I hear squirrels in my loft?
Avoid disturbing them and arrange a professional inspection as soon as possible. Early intervention can help minimise damage and reduce repair costs.
