Met a pest control bloke today who reckoned that squirrels gnaw through Polypipe / Hep etc.
Is this something that we in the plumbing industry should be worried about?
only the grey onesAre you trying to gas the squirrels?.
good point, hadn't thought about the low pressure making it a lot saferHave tried to solder onto polypipe - it works a bit and you don't need any solder, the pipe melts onto the fitting. Probably best do this only for a gas line as the presure is lower.

You could argue that the house caught fire due to dangerous wiring. If it had been wired properly, all that would have happened was a popped fuse/breaker.I worked on a house in Wimbledon that had the top floor burned because of squirrels chewing through electric cables...
Squirrels are no problem generally.
This what you have to watch
