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.

How Service Usually Works
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.

Frank was magnificent! I had some beautiful birds that were trying to make a home in my bathroom vent in Central NJ. I called and spoke to Frank after finding him online. He gave me a fair estimate over the phone AND gave me a same day appt. He was knowledgeable and professional. Hopefully I never need his services again, but if I do, he will be the first person I call! Thanks!
Response from the owner:Hi Tammy,
Thank you for the kind review. We’re glad we could get out there the same day and take care of the birds in the bathroom vent before they settled in any further. We really appreciate you trusting us and are happy the whole process felt straightforward from the first call.
Hopefully you won’t need us again, but if you do, we’ll be here.

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.
Response from the owner:Hi Rebecca,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. Bat issues can be incredibly stressful, so we’re glad we could be there when you needed help and then follow through with the inspection, exclusion, and sealing work. We really appreciate your trust in Frank and the team and are happy we could help bring some peace of mind back to your home.
