What are the clear signs of a Glis Glis infestation?
Glis Glis are active during a six-month period before going into hibernation from roughly October to May, depending on local climate conditions. They are mostly active during the summer. Glis Glis are nocturnal (active between dusk and dawn), so it is often difficult to see them. There are however a few signs which may indicate their presence. Some of these include:
- Noise: The most obvious sign of a Glis Glis problem will be scratching and scurrying in the loft, this is why the animal is often confused for Rats or Squirrels.
- Damage Internally: Upon inspection of the noise in the loft it is likely you will find damage from constant gnawing to different objects in the area where the animal has tried to gather nesting materials.
- Damage to Trees: Glis Glis are very destructive and will cause damage to trees and bark in the surrounding area.
- Location: The areas where Glis Glis are known to inhabit are concentrated to a 200-square-mile triangle between Beaconsfield, Aylesbury, and Luton, around the southeast side of the Chiltern Hills.
Problems Associated With Glis Glis
Glis Glis may seem harmless, but they can cause serious issues in both homes and businesses. They chew on timber, insulation, and electrical wiring, leading to costly damage and potential fire risks. Their droppings and nesting materials create hygiene problems and unpleasant odours, while nocturnal activity causes disruptive scratching noises. Professional Glis Glis pest control is essential to prevent infestations from escalating and protect your property.
