Squirrel populations in Queens are particularly dense in neighborhoods with mature tree canopy like Forest Hills, Kew Gardens, and Jamaica Estates, where grey squirrels travel roofline corridors and enter attics through gap-prone hip and gable roof sections of older Tudor and Colonial-style homes. Eastern flying squirrels are also present in wooded Queens neighborhoods and are often misidentified as grey squirrels.

Is Wildlife NY licensed for squirrel removal?
Yes. Wildlife NY holds a New York State DEC Nuisance Wildlife Control license. All work in East Elmhurst is performed by licensed, insured professionals using humane methods.
Are flying squirrels common in Queens?
Eastern flying squirrels are present in Queens, particularly in wooded neighborhoods around Forest Hills and Kew Gardens Hills. They are entirely nocturnal, much smaller than grey squirrels, and often misidentified as mice. A Wildlife NY inspection can confirm species through track and dropping analysis.
How do squirrels enter older Queens home styles like Tudors and Colonials?
Tudor and Colonial homes in Forest Hills and Jamaica Estates often have decorative gable features with open attic vents and hip roof sections where overlapping shingles pull away from the rake board. These gaps are primary squirrel entry points that require custom metal exclusion work.
Can squirrels in Queens walls start a fire?
Yes. Squirrels commonly chew electrical wiring in Queens attic and wall spaces. If you hear daytime scratching sounds in walls or detect a burning smell near outlets in rooms adjacent to the exterior wall, contact Wildlife NY immediately for inspection.
