Squirrel Control in Sidcup

Squirrel Control in Sidcup – What We Usually Find

Mature trees close to roofs are the single biggest factor in squirrel access, and Sidcup has more of them than anywhere else in the service area. A branch resting on a gutter is a bridge, and squirrels use it.

Bigger roofs also mean bigger lofts, so a squirrel can be established and doing damage well before anyone hears enough to ring.

The Sidcup Properties We Get Called To

Gnawed fascia and soffit, lifted tiles at a hip or valley, insulation dragged into a heap, and chewed cable. The cable is the reason not to leave it - it is a genuine fire risk.

Cutting back the branch that reaches the roof is one of the few pieces of free prevention that reliably works, and it is worth doing once the roof is clear.
