What to do if a grey squirrels visits the garden?
If grey squirrels appear in the garden please contact the Friends of the Anglesey Red Squirrels. It is important the grey squirrels are trapped and removed, and the project can do this for you. You should also cease feeding the red squirrels and try to minimise the amount of foods put out for birds. It is known that grey squirrels carry the ‘squirrel-pox’ virus which, if transmitted to red squirrels, can cause very high mortality. Once the grey squirrels are removed from the area, it is safe to restart feeding the red squirrels. Why not build your owned red squirrel feeder?
