Wildlife Entry, Damage, and Prevention Concerns in Somerville
Common Wildlife Problems in Somerville, NJ
Somerville homes and businesses can see wildlife activity around attics, rooflines, vents, chimneys, crawl spaces, decks, exterior openings, storefronts, and older building gaps. Animal Control NY/NJ helps inspect the problem, identify entry points, and explain removal and prevention options.
The best solution depends on the animal, building type, access, season, active young, droppings, odor, damaged materials, and whether exclusion or repair work is needed.
We focus on identifying the active animal issue, the opening or damage involved, and the prevention steps that can help reduce repeat entry.
Inspection, entry-point review, and practical exclusion planning help guide the right next step.

Inspect. We look for active animal activity, entry points, droppings, odor, damage, and safe access conditions.
Remove. We recommend a humane removal approach based on the animal, access, season, and whether young animals are present.
Exclude. We identify vents, roofline gaps, soffits, fascia, chimneys, crawl-space gaps, or other openings that may need screening or repair.
Prevent. We explain follow-up repair, cleanup, and proofing work that can help reduce repeat animal problems.

We had an issue with bats in our attic which have caused us a lot of stress and anxiety. Frank came at 11 pm and found the bat that had made it into our living area and came back to do a roof inspection which determined we needed bat eviction process and sealing up the roof. Frank and team were great through the whole process keeping us at ease the whole time during such a unsettling situation. You need a true professional when dealing with a serious situation and Frank and team are the best.

Animal control does not have to be without compassion. I was so grateful for Frank's compassion. I feel so lucky he returned my calls when nobody else would. He was so conscientious before even accepting the job. We had pigeons falling into and getting trapped in the top of a rolling gate, due a gap and a dent in the gate; caused by both a poor design and some damage. He took care of the current trapped pigeon then quickly and ingeniously came up with a solution. Best call I ever made.
Response from the owner:Hi Susan,
Thank you for such a thoughtful review. We’re glad we could find a practical solution that helped both the pigeon and the building. Your comments about compassion really mean a lot to us. Wildlife control doesn’t have to mean losing sight of the animal involved.
We truly appreciate you trusting us with the problem and taking the time to share your experience.
