Best Pest Control NYC provides comprehensive squirrel removal services throughout Clifton, Staten Island, protecting your property from these persistent pests. Our licensed technicians offer humane trapping, complete exclusion work, and damage restoration to keep your home squirrel-free year-round.
Why Clifton Has a Squirrels Problem
Clifton's beautiful tree-lined streets and proximity to Clove Lakes Park create ideal conditions for squirrel populations to thrive, often leading them into attics and crawl spaces of local homes. The neighborhood's mix of Victorian-era houses and mid-century homes are particularly vulnerable to squirrel entry through aging roof structures and chimney gaps.
Why Choose Us for Squirrel Removal in Clifton
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.

This includes humane trapping, complete exclusion work, sanitization, and damage repair. We provide free inspections and detailed estimates before beginning any work.
How do squirrels get into Clifton homes?▾
Squirrels commonly enter Clifton homes through roof vents, soffit gaps, chimney openings, and damaged fascia boards. The area's mature oak and maple trees provide easy access to rooflines, allowing squirrels to exploit even small openings.
