Squirrel Control in Barking
Barking has few big gardens or tree-lined roads, so grey squirrels are less of a problem than in leafier towns, but Victorian terraces and interwar semis still have eaves they can reach. Where a mature tree stands beside a house near the River Roding, a squirrel can reach the roof and gnaw into the loft.
Barking is a London-edge town in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, set beside the River Roding and the Thames. It has a busy town centre, large regeneration areas and a mix of older and newer homes. We cover Barking Riverside, Creekmouth, Thames View and Gascoigne Estate and the rest of Barking, across the IG11 postcodes.
