Squirrel Removal in Northern Brooklyn, Brooklyn
Northern Brooklyn's dense residential neighborhoods and tree-lined streets create ideal conditions for squirrel infestations in attics, walls, and crawl spaces. Best Pest Control NYC provides comprehensive squirrel removal services throughout Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Bushwick, and surrounding areas, combining humane trapping with permanent exclusion solutions. Our licensed technicians — licensed by NYS DEC or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator — understand the unique challenges of Northern Brooklyn's brownstones, multi-family homes, and converted warehouses.
Why Northern Brooklyn Has a Squirrels Problem
From the converted lofts of Williamsburg to Greenpoint's classic rowhouses and Bushwick's mixed-use buildings, Northern Brooklyn's diverse architecture provides countless entry points for determined squirrels. The abundance of mature trees along McCarren Park and the East River waterfront means squirrel populations remain high year-round, making professional exclusion essential for long-term protection.
Why Choose Us for Squirrel Removal in Northern Brooklyn
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.

How do squirrels get into Northern Brooklyn homes?▾
Squirrels commonly enter through roof vents, soffit gaps, chimney caps, and fascia boards that have deteriorated over time. In Northern Brooklyn's older brownstones and rowhouses, cornice returns and decorative woodwork often provide easy access points. They only need a 1.5-inch opening to squeeze through.
Is squirrel removal in Brooklyn humane?▾
Yes, Best Pest Control NYC uses only humane, legal methods for squirrel removal in compliance with New York State wildlife regulations. We use live traps when necessary and focus primarily on exclusion techniques that allow squirrels to exit but not re-enter, ensuring they relocate naturally without harm.
What damage can squirrels cause in my Northern Brooklyn home?▾
Squirrels can cause extensive damage by chewing through electrical wiring (creating fire hazards), shredding insulation for nests, gnawing on wooden beams and rafters, and contaminating spaces with urine and droppings. They're most active during morning and evening hours, and you'll often hear scratching, running, or chewing sounds in your attic or walls.
