Trappy’s Wildlife Control is locally based at 16626 Broadway Avenue, Maple Heights, OH — a short drive from Cleveland. We’ve spent years trapping, removing, and excluding wildlife from homes and businesses across Cleveland and the surrounding inner-ring Cleveland suburbs — humanely, and without the upsell games of a chain pest company.
If raccoons are in your attic, bats are getting into your bedroom, a skunk has moved in under your porch, or there’s a deer in your yard that didn’t make it, you can call us at 216-586-4692 and reach the people doing the work — not a call center.
Wildlife We Handle in Cleveland
Cleveland is the largest service area we cover, and with that comes the full mix of urban and edge-of-woods wildlife. The most common calls we get from Cleveland properties:
- Opossums — on porches, decks, and inside crawl spaces — Cleveland’s mature trees and shed-heavy lots make this one of the most common inner-city calls.
- Raccoons — attic invasions in older West Side and Glenville homes; trash-bin and dumpster raids in every commercial district.
- Skunks — denning under decks, porches, and outbuildings — most common in Old Brooklyn, Slavic Village, and the southwest.
- Coyotes — urban coyote sightings have risen sharply in recent years — Edgewater, Rockefeller Park, Lakeview Cemetery edges, and along the Cuyahoga River corridor.
- Bats — colonies in century homes across Ohio City, Tremont, and the East Side — exclusion has to follow Ohio Division of Wildlife timing to avoid stranding pups.
- Squirrels — gable vents, soffits, and chimney chases in the older brick-and-frame housing stock.
- Deer — on the eastern wooded edges and in larger commercial lots near the parks — both nuisance landscaping damage and roadside dead-deer pickup.
Services We Provide to Cleveland Properties
- Wildlife in Structures — attic, crawl space, soffit, deck, and shed removals with full exclusion repair.
- Trash Area Wildlife — raccoons and opossums in dumpsters, residential bins, and commercial trash enclosures.

Why Local Matters for Wildlife Work
Cleveland’s housing stock spans 130 years — a wildlife job in a 1910 Tremont rowhouse is a different animal than a job in a 1970s West Park ranch. We know the building styles, the inspectors, and which neighborhoods see what kind of pressure. We’re fifteen minutes from anywhere in the city, with a real Cleveland-area phone number that reaches us, not a national call center.
We’re also the people who’ll be back if something needs fixing. That matters.
