Squirrel Control in Hockley
Interwar and post-war semis, bungalows and detached family homes in Hockley often have mature gardens, and grey squirrels use those trees to get onto low roofs and into eaves and lofts. With ancient woodland on the southern edge of the town, squirrels have ready cover nearby and move easily between the trees and the houses.
Hockley is a commuter town in south-east Essex, between Rayleigh and Rochford, with a station on the Southend line. Ancient woodland lies on its southern edge, and the housing is mostly suburban. We cover Hawkwell, Hockley Woods, Plumberow and Ashingdon and the rest of Hockley, across the SS5 postcodes.
