Wildlife Management
Wildlife entry into structures — raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and birds — is always a structural problem. Our specialists identify every entry point, assess damage to insulation, wiring, and structural elements, and develop a removal and exclusion plan that addresses the building vulnerability, not just the animal. We coordinate humane removal with permanent exclusion using professional-grade materials that wildlife cannot breach.
Our Approach
Assessment
Comprehensive inspection to identify the scope and source of activity, entry points, and environmental conditions.
Treatment
Targeted protocols using IPM methodology, tailored to your property type and the specific species involved.
Prevention
Ongoing monitoring, exclusion work, and environmental modification to prevent recurrence.
Wildlife Management Service Areas
We provide wildlife management services across all of our NYC and Long Island locations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our specialists assess each situation individually — the species, the entry point, whether young are present, and the time of year all factor into the removal approach. We use humane exclusion methods that allow animals to exit but not re-enter, live trapping where appropriate, and direct removal for situations that require it. All work is conducted in compliance with applicable wildlife regulations. Removal is always followed by permanent exclusion to prevent re-entry.
Wildlife in structural voids cause insulation compression and contamination, wiring damage that creates fire risk, structural damage to wood framing, and secondary pest issues from parasites they introduce. The longer the situation continues, the greater the remediation cost. Our inspection includes assessment of existing damage and a clear picture of what remediation may be needed beyond exclusion and removal.
Permanent exclusion uses professional-grade materials — galvanized hardware cloth, metal flashing, mortar, and structural sealants appropriate to the specific entry points. We do not use foam or lightweight mesh that wildlife can breach. Every entry point identified during inspection is addressed, not just the primary one in use. We focus on the building envelope as a system, not a single obvious opening.
