Squirrel Control in Hazlemere

Hazlemere, Holmer Green and Widmer End sit on the plateau above High Wycombe with woodland and commons threaded through the housing rather than sitting beside it. A great many properties here back onto or face trees.

There is also a high proportion of bungalows, and a bungalow is a genuinely different squirrel job from a two-storey house.

Bungalows

A Lower Roof Is an Easier Roof

A bungalow roofline is within reach of far more trees, because a squirrel does not need much height to reach a single-storey eaves. Shrubs, hedging and modest garden trees that would be irrelevant against a two-storey house are viable routes here.

The loft is different too. It runs over the whole footprint rather than over half of it, so there is more space, more insulation and more cable, and the noise is directly above living rooms and bedrooms rather than above other bedrooms.

On the useful side, a single-storey roofline is a great deal easier and cheaper to inspect and to proof properly, and cutting back the vegetation that reaches it is genuinely realistic here in a way it is not against a tall house.

Short answers

Hazlemere Questions

Is a bungalow more at risk?

The roofline is reachable from much lower vegetation, so yes. The compensation is that it is far easier and cheaper to proof properly.

Do you cover Holmer Green and Widmer End?

Yes, both, along with the surrounding lanes.

Would cutting the hedge back help?

On a bungalow, often substantially - much more so than against a two-storey house.
