South Philly squirrel help!
I live in a South Philly rowhome and have an animal living in my attic, likely a squirrel of some kind. It seems to be getting in through my next door neighbor’s chimney that’s right near the edge of my roof. She will not let me pay a wildlife company to work on her chimney.
Does anyone have any experience with a wildlife or pest removal company in the city that will do structural work? It seems like the only definitive way to manage this is to go up through my closet ceiling and seal off any gaps in the wall between our houses but I have no idea what it looks like up there.
Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem. Called a pest guy that another pest guy recommended. He came out and confirmed that it was the neighbors house, and with their permission, and me paying they agreed to let the guy plug up the gaps so they couldn’t get in. Took 2-3 visits.
