Squirrel Removal in West Haverstraw
Gray squirrels are one of the most common attic intruders for West Haverstraw homeowners. Unlike raccoons, squirrels are active during the day — you'll often hear them running and scratching in your attic in the morning. They chew constantly and can gnaw through electrical wires, creating a serious fire hazard that many homeowners don't discover until it's too late.

Squirrel Removal in West Haverstraw — FAQ
How do squirrels get into homes in West Haverstraw?
Gray squirrels are excellent climbers that access homes through gaps at roof edges, deteriorating soffits, gable vents, and roof-to-wall intersections. In West Haverstraw, mature trees with overhanging branches give squirrels easy roof access. Even a 1½-inch gap is enough for a squirrel to squeeze through.
Can I just trap squirrels myself in West Haverstraw?
Trapping alone doesn't work — squirrels will keep returning until entry points are sealed. In New York, there are also regulations about relocating trapped squirrels. Our West Haverstraw team uses one-way exclusion doors that let squirrels exit on their own, then we permanently seal every entry point so they can't return.
How do you stop squirrels from coming back in West Haverstraw?
After squirrels exit through one-way doors, we replace those doors with permanent steel mesh and seal every gap with hardware cloth and caulk. We also assess and recommend trimming tree branches within 6-8 feet of your West Haverstraw roof. Our exclusion work comes with a warranty.
