Why City Island Has a Raccoons Problem
City Island's Victorian-era homes, yacht clubs, and seafood restaurants along City Island Avenue attract raccoons searching for shelter and food sources near the water.

Why Choose Us for Raccoon Removal in City Island
Raccoon removal is a multi-step process that must be performed by our technicians — licensed or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator. Trapping, relocation, and exclusion work are completed in compliance with applicable state regulations to ensure effectiveness.

Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.
