GLIS GLIS
As seasons change and the weather gets cooler, glis glis look to hibernate. They often do this in homes, business premises, lofts, garages - just about anywhere were they can find a warm, cozy area to bed down.
Pest Control companies must be licensed by Natural England in order to control Glis Glis. They are a protected species needing a lot of experience and expertise to deal with.
​
Often mistaken for squirrels (though not related and smaller than the squirrel), Glis Glis cause problems with the change of weather as they prepare to hibernate as winter begins. Often they find their way into your loft space or cavity walls where they cause untold damage. This is particularly dangerous due to their love of electrical cables, which can cause fires. They cause a lot of noise as they run through cavities and loft spaces.
