Squirrel Removal in Forest Hills, NY

Forest Hills presents a different face from most of Queens — the Tudor-style apartment buildings of the Forest Hills Gardens planned community, built around a private LIRR station in 1909, give the neighborhood a distinctly suburban feel unusual in the borough. The neighborhood's concentration of pre-war co-ops and the Gardens' historic Tudor buildings have aging plumbing and basement systems where rodents and cockroaches can establish footholds. The heavily wooded Queens Boulevard median and the Forest Park border bring tick and wildlife pressure to properties on the southern edge. Jet Pest Control serves Forest Hills with the discretion and thoroughness that the neighborhood's co-op boards and homeowners expect — comprehensive inspections, targeted treatments, and no-residue protocols.

Gray squirrels are Nassau County's most common wildlife pest — agile, persistent, and capable of chewing through virtually any material to gain access to attic spaces. Once inside an attic, squirrels establish nesting sites, contaminate insulation with urine and droppings, and gnaw on electrical wiring — creating both structural damage and fire hazards. Nassau County's mature suburban tree canopy provides overhead highway access to rooflines throughout the county, meaning every home with a nearby tree is a potential squirrel target. Flying squirrels are also active in Nassau County, entering attics through smaller gaps than their gray cousins. Our Nassau County squirrel removal program includes humane trapping, exclusion of all entry points, and attic restoration services.
