Squirrel & Raccoon Proofing in Kearny, NJ

Squirrels in the attic or a raccoon in the chimney? Silver Bullet Pest Control gets wildlife out of Kearny homes humanely and seals every entry point with steel so it stays out.

Watch: Silver Bullet wildlife work

Why squirrels and raccoons get into Kearny homes

Kearny has the Passaic and Hackensack Rivers and the Meadowlands, which supports a healthy population of squirrels and raccoons close to homes. Much of the housing is attached and closely built older homes, many with flat or low-slope roofs.

Low-slope and flat roofs have parapets, scuppers and vents that raccoons pry at. We check and guard all of them.

Seasons matter

In Kearny, fall and winter calls are mostly squirrels looking for warmth. Spring brings raccoon mothers to chimneys and attics. Late summer brings second squirrel litters. We check for young every time before sealing — see baby season in NJ.

How it works

1. Inspect every opening and check for young.
2. Exclude with one-way doors.
3. Seal the rest with steel.
4. Close the last holes once the animals are out.
5. Repair damage and clean up.

How to tell what you have

Daytime noise — especially early morning — points to squirrels. Night-time thumping and chattering points to raccoons; lighter night scratching to mice or rats. Look for chewed wood at roof corners (squirrels) or torn vents and soffits (raccoons). Our attic noise guide goes deeper.
