The most common signs include scratching, running or thumping noises during the night, particularly between late spring and early autumn. You may also notice droppings, chewed insulation, damaged electrical cables or nesting materials within your loft. Because Glis glis are excellent climbers, they often gain access via overhanging trees or small gaps around the roofline. A professional inspection is the best way to confirm their presence.

Their body is approximately  17 cm in length with a 12cm tail. They weigh from 120 to 150 grams and can double in weight prior to hibernation.

The following signs are indicative of a glis glis infestation in your home:

Scurrying, scratching, high pitched squeaks and snuffling noises coming from the roof, ceiling, loft or attic spaces.
Irregular shape droppings up to 1 cm long scattered across the the floor, loft or attic spaces.

Yes. Unlike rats and mice, Glis glis are a protected species and can only be controlled under licence. Attempting to trap or remove them yourself could result in legal issues and may not resolve the infestation. A licensed pest control specialist will ensure the problem is dealt with legally, safely and effectively while complying with current wildlife legislation.

Glis glis can cause extensive damage once they enter a property. They frequently chew electrical wiring, insulation, timber and stored belongings while creating nests within loft spaces. Their constant activity can also result in disturbed sleep, unpleasant odours and contamination from droppings. Left untreated, the damage can become expensive to repair, making early intervention extremely important.

The Chiltern Hills provide the ideal habitat for Glis glis, with mature woodland, plentiful food sources and excellent opportunities for nesting. Since being introduced to the UK more than a century ago, the population has remained concentrated throughout this region, making Buckinghamshire and parts of Berkshire the areas where homeowners are most likely to encounter them.

Every property is different, so we begin with a thorough inspection to identify how the animals are entering your home and where they are nesting. We then implement a licensed control programme that complies fully with UK legislation before advising on proofing measures to reduce the risk of future infestations. Our aim is not only to resolve the immediate problem but also to help protect your property long-term.

We understand how stressful it can be to hear persistent scratching and movement in your loft night after night. We always aim to respond promptly, arranging an inspection as soon as possible to assess the infestation and explain the most suitable licensed control options. The sooner the problem is addressed, the less opportunity Glis glis have to cause further damage.
