Why Brooklyn Heights Has a Raccoons Problem
Brooklyn Heights' mature trees along the Promenade and quiet residential streets create ideal raccoon habitats, while the neighborhood's older brownstones and row houses offer numerous access points through chimneys, roof eaves, and foundation gaps. The area's proximity to Brooklyn Bridge Park and the waterfront attracts raccoons seeking food and shelter in attics, crawl spaces, and between walls.
Why Choose Us for Raccoon Removal in Brooklyn Heights
Raccoon removal is a multi-step process regulated by New York State — trapping, relocation, and exclusion work must all be performed by NYS DEC licensed wildlife specialists to ensure compliance and effectiveness. We start with an inspection of your attic, eaves, chimney, and exterior to confirm raccoon presence, identify entry points, and assess any damage to insulation, ductwork, or structure. We deploy live traps baited with appropriate attractants, check traps daily, and relocate captured raccoons in accordance with DEC regulations and humane treatment standards. Once removal is confirmed, we seal all identified entry points with heavy-gauge hardware cloth, metal flashing, and appropriate fasteners — our 30-day guarantee covers re-entry through any sealed point.
