Why Greenpoint Has a Squirrels Problem
From the historic Polish community near Nassau Avenue to the bustling waterfront along Greenpoint Avenue and McCarren Park's abundant tree cover, Greenpoint's diverse architecture presents varied entry points for squirrels.

Why Choose Us for Squirrel Removal in Greenpoint
Squirrels in attics and walls cause significant damage — chewing electrical wiring, destroying insulation, and creating fire hazards — so removal and exclusion need to happen together, not in sequence. Our technicians inspect the exterior to map all entry points, then install one-way exclusion devices that allow squirrels to exit but not re-enter, humane approach that avoids trapping and relocating nursing young. Once all squirrel activity has ceased (confirmed by monitoring), we seal every entry point with galvanized hardware cloth, metal flashing, and caulk — materials squirrels cannot chew through. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.

Why are squirrels so common in Greenpoint?▾
Greenpoint's mature trees along streets and in parks like McGolrick Park and McCarren Park provide ideal squirrel habitat. The neighborhood's older buildings often have gaps in soffits, vents, and rooflines that squirrels exploit for nesting, especially during fall and spring breeding seasons. The mix of residential and commercial properties also provides abundant food sources.
How do I know if I have squirrels in my Greenpoint home?▾
Common signs include scratching or scurrying sounds in your attic or walls (especially during early morning and evening), visible damage to roof edges or soffits, chewed wires or insulation, droppings in the attic, and seeing squirrels entering or exiting your roofline. Greenpoint homeowners often notice increased activity during fall when squirrels prepare for winter.

We use live traps and one-way exclusion doors that allow squirrels to leave but not return. We never use poisons or lethal traps, and we follow all guidelines to ensure squirrels are removed safely and relocated according to local laws.
