Why Cypress Hills Has a Raccoons Problem
Cypress Hills' proximity to Highland Park and the former Ridgewood Reservoir creates an ideal habitat corridor for raccoons moving between green spaces and residential areas. The neighborhood's mix of detached homes, attached row houses, and low-rise apartment buildings along Fulton Street and Atlantic Avenue provide numerous entry points that raccoons exploit for denning sites.
Why Choose Us for Raccoon Removal in Cypress Hills
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.

Raccoon Removal in Cypress Hills — FAQs
How much does raccoon removal cost in Cypress Hills?▾
Raccoon removal in Cypress Hills typically costs between $900 and $4,000 depending on the severity of the infestation, number of raccoons, entry points needing exclusion, and whether attic cleanup or damage repair is required. We provide free inspections and detailed quotes before beginning work.
Why are raccoons so common in Cypress Hills?▾
Cypress Hills' location adjacent to Highland Park and near the former Ridgewood Reservoir provides raccoons with natural habitat and food sources. The neighborhood's older housing stock often has vulnerable entry points like unsealed chimneys, damaged roof vents, and gaps in soffits that raccoons exploit to access attics and crawl spaces.
Are raccoons in Cypress Hills dangerous?▾
Yes, raccoons can pose health risks through rabies transmission, raccoon roundworm in their feces, and aggressive behavior when cornered or protecting young. They also cause significant property damage by tearing insulation, chewing wires, and contaminating attics with urine and droppings. Professional removal is strongly recommended rather than DIY approaches.
How quickly can you remove raccoons from my Cypress Hills property?▾
We offer same-day emergency response for Cypress Hills residents and typically begin the trapping process within 24 hours of your call. Complete removal usually takes 3-7 days depending on the number of raccoons, though exclusion work and cleanup may extend the timeline. We'll provide a detailed schedule during your free inspection.
