Are Squirrels Pests?

There are two types of squirrels found in Great Britain; the native red squirrel and the grey squirrel. The red squirrel's numbers have declined over the past century, a direct result of the introduction of the grey squirrel into the UK in the 1970’s. It is now protected by UK law. It is a criminal offence to kill or injure one.

The grey squirrel, however, is considered a pest. It is far more accustomed to people and more likely to invade your home, usually via the attic, and likely to do untold damage. Grey squirrel numbers in UK towns and cities are on the rise. However the public should be aware that it is against the law to release a squirrel back into the wild as it is possible that you could change the local eco system.

Rat Prevention

Rats are attracted to your property by two things, food (rodents are omnivores, so will eat anything) and shelter. Rats, enter your home looking to find, somewhere that is warm, sheltered, with a steady food and water supply. By restricting access to these fundamental necessities, you will reduce the likelihood of a rodent problem.

Have you seen the Black Squirrel?

Helen McRobie, a lecturer at Anglian Ruskin University in Cambridge, is leading an appeal in Essex and Hertfordshire, to find the elusive Black Squirrel. The North American natives, which scientists believe are a mutated relation to the common Grey Squirrel, were first spotted in England as early as 1912 and their number have risen steadily ever since.

Ms McRobie is appealing to the British public to register any sighting of the Black squirrel by going to the study’s webpage: www.blacksquirrelproject.org. The aim of this project is to verify the geographical area now populated by the Black Squirrel in the British Isles

Black Squirrels are Grey Squirrels that pass on a mutated gene that only allows the growth of Black hair rather than; black, white and red. This mutation also has the ability to make the Black Squirrels more aggressive than the Grey Squirrels and less susceptible to disease. The Black Squirrel does seem to be slowly spreading across the country, taking over habitats usually inhabited by the grey squirrels. Like the Grey Squirrels, the Black Squirrels are considered pests in this country.
