Squirrel Control in Bexley: what we see locally
Bexley's parks and woods, such as Danson Park, Bexley Woods, Lesnes Abbey Woods and Joydens Wood, support a large grey squirrel population. In autumn and late winter, they look for warm places to nest, including lofts.
Squirrels can chew cables, insulation and timber, and their noise can keep you awake. We remove them and show you where they're getting in, so the hole can be repaired.

- Homes near woodland: Houses near Bexley Woods and Joydens Wood are most at risk.

Our squirrel control service covers the whole of Bexley (DA1, DA5, DA6, DA7, DA8, DA14, DA15, DA16, DA17 and SE2), including Barnehurst, Belvedere, Bexleyheath, Blackfen, Crayford, Erith, Old Bexley, Sidcup, Thamesmead East and Welling, with same-day or next-day visits.
Keeping squirrels out of Bexley homes
Cut back branches near the roof, check fascia boards and soffits for soft or chewed timber and have holes repaired with metal mesh once squirrels have gone. Use squirrel-proof bird feeders, and never block a hole while squirrels may still be inside.
