Wildlife Problems in Travis, Staten Island

The mature trees and wooded lots that make Travis attractive to homeowners also make it attractive to wildlife. Squirrels use overhanging branches as highways to your roof. Raccoons raid garbage cans and then move into attics for the winter. In Staten Island's suburban landscape, wildlife encounters are a when, not an if.

In established neighborhoods, one home with a wildlife problem often means the whole block is at risk. Animals don't recognize property lines.

Animals We Remove in Travis

Raccoon Removal

Raccoons are one of the most destructive animals that invade attics. They tear through insulation, rip up ductwork, and leave behind animal waste. A single raccoon can cause thousands in damage within weeks.

Signs in Your Home

  • Heavy thumping sounds at night (they're nocturnal)
  • Visible damage to soffits, vents, or roof edges
  • Large droppings (similar to small dog)

Damage They Cause

  • Destroyed insulation (R-value loss = higher energy bills)
  • Contaminated attic requiring professional feces cleanup
  • Chewed electrical wires (fire hazard)

Squirrel Removal

Squirrels may look cute, but they're relentless chewers that can destroy your attic. They gnaw on wood, wires, and pipes constantly because their teeth never stop growing. One squirrel chewing on electrical wires is a house fire waiting to happen.

Signs in Your Home

  • Scurrying and scratching sounds, especially morning and evening
  • Chew marks on wood, wires, or plastic vents
  • Small droppings (like large rice grains)

Damage They Cause

  • Chewed electrical wires (leading cause of attic fires)
  • Gnawed PVC pipes (water damage)
  • Destroyed insulation used for nesting

Our Animal Removal Process

  1. 1

    Thorough Inspection

    We inspect your entire Travis property - attic, roof, soffits, crawl spaces, and full exterior. We identify the species, find every entry point, and assess the damage. This inspection is always free.

  2. 2

    Humane Removal

    Depending on the species, we use Havahart live traps, one-way exclusion devices, or professional snap traps. Every method we use is humane and compliant with New York wildlife regulations. We never use poison - it creates more problems than it solves.

  3. 3

    Exclusion & Prevention

    Once the animals are out, we permanently seal every entry point with heavy-gauge steel mesh, metal flashing, and commercial-grade sealants. Materials are chosen to withstand the specific animals in Staten Island - raccoons need heavier gauge than mice. The exclusion plan is documented in writing before the job starts.

Travis Wildlife Removal FAQ

Free inspection. No obligation.

Is your animal removal humane?
Always. We use live traps, one-way exclusion devices, and humane handling methods that comply with all New York wildlife regulations. No poison, no glue traps, no unnecessary harm. Animals are relocated or excluded humanely.
How do I know what animal is in my attic?
Sound, timing, and droppings tell the story. Daytime scratching = squirrels. Night thumping = raccoons. Light nocturnal scurrying = flying squirrels or mice. Fluttering = bats. We can identify the species during our free inspection.
How is coverage handled on wildlife exclusion?
Coverage depends on the service and the approved scope. Any service-specific coverage is confirmed in writing during inspection and proposal so you know exactly what is and is not covered.
Should I call about animals under my deck or shed?
Yes. Animals under decks and sheds eventually find their way into your home - especially groundhogs, skunks, and opossums. We can exclude them from under structures and prevent them from migrating to your attic or crawl space.
Are you licensed for animal removal in New York?
Yes. Licensed and insured for animal and rodent control in New York State. We handle all common Staten Island species including raccoons, squirrels, and bats.

We already know which service you need. Your info and address are enough to start.
