Awwwww.....How cute you may be thinking.............Would you still be thinking this is you had them running riot in your loft? Having little squirrel get-togethers at 6am every morning??
Thought not!
This is my problem at this moment in time.I have been hearing the stangest of noises almost every early morning........a kind of scrabbling and jumping sound....not the scratching you may liken with rats or mice etc.
Well after many months of it driving me insane I decided to call the Landlords Pest Control team out......
He looked...they hid.....
He set traps....they avoided them.......
These are very clever beasts.........
But we know its definately squirrels as he caught a quick sighting of one.
We are wondering why they are getting into the loft space as there is no food etc there.
Seems the cheeky wotsits have been helping themselves to chunks of loft insulation...most probably for their dreys or nest like structures they build to raise young in and hibernate in.
So not only are they breaking in....they are stealing as well!
Personally I'm not that bothered if they catch them or not.......I'm just glad its squirrels and not rats!
Have great weekend people.

It doesn't seem so bad having suirrels in your loft as opposed to rats, but helping themselves to your loft insulation - cheeky little critters!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of your weekend.
