The Short Answer
Squirrel trapping in Cambridge is £280 fixed cost, with no call-out fee. The price is published and confirmed with you before anything is booked, so there is no figure to haggle over on the doorstep.
What the £280 Covers
- The survey of the roof space, the roofline and the routes on to the roof.
- Identification, including a judgement about whether control is warranted at all.
- The trapping programme, set on the routes the animal is actually using.
- The return visits needed to finish it, which is the substantial part of the job.
- Confirmation that the roof space is clear.
- A written report of what was found and what we recommend.
Why It Is a Fixed Price
Trapping is a programme rather than a single visit. Traps have to be sited where the animal is travelling and checked regularly, and a squirrel does not enter a trap to a timetable. A fixed price means you are not paying for each extra visit, and you know the figure before we start.
What Is Not Included
- Proofing is priced separately, by time, so you can see what each half of the job costs.
- Roofing repairs such as repointing a verge, rebedding ridge tiles or replacing rotten boards belong to a roofer.
- Replacement insulation is an insulation contractor.
- Electrical repairs to gnawed cable are an electrician's job.
Splitting it up this way means you only pay us for the part that is pest control, and your own roofer or electrician can do the rest.
What Can Change the Scope
A building with more than one roof space, a commercial roofline, access that needs equipment beyond a ladder, a second species in the roof or something protected in the loft can change the job. If any of those apply, you will be told before booking, not afterwards.
For the detail behind the figure, see our squirrel trapping price guide and the Squirrel Control Cambridge page.
