Squirrel Control in Huntingdon
You have found the hole. The instinct is to close it this afternoon. Please do not — it is the one action that reliably makes a squirrel job worse.
Signs You May Need Squirrel Trapping in Huntingdon
- Heavy, confident movement overhead, loudest during daylight hours
- Gnawing at the roofline — soffits, fascia boards, vents or barge boards
- Insulation torn up, compacted or dragged into a heap
- Damaged or stripped electrical cable in the roof space
- Droppings and staining in the loft, or a contaminated water tank
- Squirrels seen using a branch, fence or drainpipe to reach the roof
Not sure what you are dealing with? A
pest inspection and survey is
£120 fixed cost and identifies the pest, the extent and the access
points before you commit to a treatment.
Never Block the Hole First
Finding the access point is genuinely the useful half of the diagnosis. Closing it before the roof space is clear is a different matter.
What happens if you do
- You seal the animal in. It does not accept that, and a squirrel shut in a roof space will gnaw its way out through timber, felt, plaster or a soffit
- You may seal young in with no adult, which is inhumane and ends in an odour problem in an inaccessible void
- You get fresh damage in a new place, which is a second repair on top of the first
The correct order is treat, confirm clear, then proof. It is the same order as rodent work and for the same reason, except that a squirrel is considerably better equipped to make its own exit than a mouse is.
What proofing a roofline actually involves
- Soffit and fascia joints, and where they meet at a corner
- Lifted or slipped tiles, and gaps at the verge
- Open eaves where the roof meets the wall
- Vents, flues and old service penetrations
- Metal, not filler. Mesh or plate. A squirrel gnaws through foam, sealant and timber patching without noticing
- The route on to the roof, which is often a branch or a climbing plant and is the cheapest thing on this list to deal with
Squirrel work is £280 fixed cost; proofing is separate at £180 for up to an hour, and it goes in last.
How We Approach Squirrel Trapping in Huntingdon
We treat first, confirm the roof space is clear, and proof last, because that order is what stops the animal making its own exit through your ceiling.
Proofing is priced separately so it is your choice who carries it out. Nothing is arranged until you have the treatment and the price in front of you.

Why Huntingdon Property Owners Call a Professional
Foam, sealant and a timber patch are what most people close a roofline gap with, and a squirrel goes through all three. Proofing that holds is metal, and it goes on last.

Squirrel or Rat in the Loft? How Huntingdon Homeowners Can Tell the Difference
These are not two versions of the same job. They are different services, done differently, at different prices, and one of them has a legal dimension.
Read the guide →Where Are Squirrels Getting Into the Roof of My Huntingdon Home?
People with newer houses are surprised by this, and the surprise is the problem — it means nobody checks the places where a modern roof is actually weak.

You do not need to go up there. Squirrels leave more evidence outside a building than in it, and it is all visible from the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions — Squirrel Trapping Huntingdon
How much is squirrel trapping in Huntingdon?
Our current price is £280 fixed cost. The applicable treatment and the final price are confirmed before any work begins, and there is no call-out fee.
Can you just block the hole they are using?
Not while there is anything in the roof space. A sealed-in squirrel gnaws its way out and makes fresh damage doing it, and sealed-in young cause a worse problem again.
What actually keeps them out?
Metal — mesh or plate — at the soffits, verges, eaves and old penetrations, plus removing the branch or climbing plant that gets them on to the roof.
Can you help if I am not sure which pest I have?
Yes. A pest inspection and survey is £120 fixed cost and identifies the pest, the extent and the access points before you commit to a treatment.
Do you cover homes and businesses in Huntingdon?
Yes. We take enquiries from homeowners, tenants, landlords, letting agents, property managers and businesses in Huntingdon and the surrounding area.
