Jerry and his team did two projects for me within the past 3 months. They went above and beyond each time. I’m a raving fan of Jerry and his team.
Project 1: Sealing up the roof and gutters to get/keep squirrels out of the roof.
Project 2: Sealing up the house, garage, and crawl space to keep rats away.
Jerry is professional, consultative, responsive and affordable. Jerry, Brian and Vince are wonderful guys!
Thank you,

Excellent, friendly, quick, professional, and dependable! All the things you would want when dealing with a nasty rat and squirrel infestation in your garage! Jerry and his team cut down a massive tree hanging over the garage, dumped out 20 years worth of garbage, and sealed the incredibly large holes the rats and squirrels made all around the garage. This is the second time he’s worked on our property. I was overjoyed to have these problems taken care of so quickly and thoughtfully by City Green Trappers- a very friendly and polite team to boot!
I was blessed with squirrels in my basement! I was freaking out and just started randomly calling companies. This company was incredible! They not only called me back quickly, but also came out the very same day to start to resolve the issue. Very nice people, and great service. Would highly recommend them!
Very helpful service provider. We had mice in the basement, squirrels in the attic, and rabbits under the deck. The squirrels and rabbits are no longer a problem due to the strong preventative solutions put in place. Haven’t seen a mouse in the house since they helped us out and they come and clean and bait the basement periodically.
Great people to work with , had mice problems and they came and took care of the problems and there is no more mice…. very reasonable pricing and friendly
Excellent work, very knowledgeable and courteous. Would use them again. I highly recommend them.
Jerry, Carlos and Brian have done great work for our condo building. First they took care of rats that ate thorough the first floor appt –setting up traps/constructing barriers etc. That was very successful! Great job! Then then returned and build a fence as a barrier from our neighbors for the same thing —Chicago Rats!!
Timely, responsive, hard working and good guys! Thanks for doing excellent work for us!!
Truly a Superhero.
On your worst day, on the day you can’t take a deep breath. The day you can’t imagine how to begin with a serious problem, that quite frankly terrifies you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is animal proofing?
Animal proofing is the process of inspecting your home for potential entry points where animals may gain access and sealing those areas to prevent infestations. This includes securing vents, gaps, cracks, and other vulnerable spots to keep critters like squirrels, raccoons, and birds out of your home.
What types of properties do you service?
We provide animal proofing services for all types of residential properties, from large multi-story homes to smaller ranch-style houses. Regardless of the size of your home, we take great care to ensure it is fully protected from unwanted animals.
What does the home inspection include?
Our home inspection covers every part of your house, from the foundation to the roof. We carefully inspect the attic, basement, vents, and any nooks or crannies to identify how animals are entering your home. We also look for signs of animal waste, chewed wires, and other damage caused by critters.
Why is it important to perform a full home inspection?
A full home inspection is crucial to identify all potential entry points that animals may use to get into your home. Even the smallest gaps or vents can provide access to pests. By thoroughly inspecting your home, we can find the source of the problem and prevent future infestations.
What types of repairs do you perform for animal proofing?
We perform a wide range of repairs to seal entry points and prevent animals from entering your home. This includes fixing gaps, cracks, vents, and any damaged areas that critters can use to get inside. We ensure that the repairs are durable enough to withstand gnawing animals and are aesthetically pleasing, blending with your home’s exterior.
Do you guarantee that animals will not return after your service?
Yes, our goal is to ensure that animals do not return to your home after we perform our animal proofing services. Our thorough inspection and expert repairs help keep critters out for good. We stand by our work and offer a warranty on our services.
Can animal proofing prevent damage to my home?
Yes, animal proofing can prevent significant damage to your home caused by critters. Animals like squirrels and raccoons can chew through insulation, wires, and wood, leading to costly repairs. By sealing entry points and keeping them out, we help protect your home from future damage.
How soon can you perform animal proofing services?
We aim to provide prompt service and can often schedule inspections and repairs within a short timeframe. After the initial inspection, we will provide you with a detailed plan and timeline for the necessary repairs to keep your home animal-free.
Is animal proofing safe for my pets and family?
Yes, our animal proofing services are completely safe for your pets and family. We use non-toxic, humane methods to prevent animals from entering your home, and all repairs are made with the safety of your household in mind.
How long do the repairs last?
Our repairs are designed to last for years, providing a long-term solution to keep animals out of your home. We use high-quality materials and proven methods to ensure that our repairs are durable and effective in preventing future infestations.
Do I need animal proofing even if I don’t currently have a problem?
Yes, it’s a good idea to consider animal proofing even if you don’t currently have an infestation. Preventative measures can save you from potential future problems, costly repairs, and the hassle of removing animals once they’ve entered your home.
