Raccoon removal near Freehold NJ humane wildlife control and exclusion service
Raccoon activity near rooflines, chimneys, soffits, and attic openings should be inspected before sealing any entry point.

Raccoon Problems Near Freehold

Raccoons are strong, persistent animals that can use loose soffits, roofline gaps, damaged vents, chimneys, fascia openings, sheds, decks, crawl spaces, and attic access points for shelter. Around Freehold and Monmouth County, raccoon calls often involve night noise, heavy walking above the ceiling, damaged exterior trim, droppings, odor, or a female raccoon using a protected area for young.

The safest approach is to identify the active animal, understand the entry point, and avoid sealing openings too early. If babies are present or the raccoon is still inside, a rushed repair can create a bigger odor, noise, or damage problem.

  1. Inspect: We look for tracks, droppings, entry damage, attic signs, chimney access, roofline gaps, and whether young raccoons may be present.
  2. Remove: We recommend a humane removal approach based on the animal, access, season, height, and building conditions.
  3. Exclude: Once the animal issue is resolved, we identify openings that may need sealing, screening, repair, or reinforcement.
  4. Prevent: We explain cleanup, odor, insulation, and repair concerns that can help reduce repeat raccoon problems.

Raccoon Removal Cost Near Freehold

Raccoon removal pricing depends on access, height, number of entry points, whether babies are present, attic contamination, chimney or soffit damage, and the amount of exclusion or repair work needed.

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.

Your comments about compassion really mean a lot to us. Wildlife control doesn’t have to mean losing sight of the animal involved.

I called Frank from Animal Control Wildlife Removal Services after realizing I had a rodent issue which needed immediate action in Keansburg NJ. I’d been hearing something in the roof moving around for weeks and it got so bad that something chewed right through my piping cause a major leak in one of the bedrooms. I explained everything to Frank over the phone and he was able to get me an appointment within the same week! Franks team arrived on my property and assessed everything in detail, taking the time to answer my many questions/concerns. They confirmed it was a squirrel hiding out in my roof causing the noise and issues. The work they did was transparent and documented every step of the way. I was provided with inspection findings, and any recommended corrective work. After agreeing on the service charge, Frank’s team got to work, setting up camera monitoring of the areas in question. They set up a one-way exclusion device that successfully got the squirrel out of the roof. Once the squirrel was out of the roof, the team secured the holes and openings on the roof, even cutting the tree branches outside my home near the roof to prevent further rodent access. Frank and his team are very professional and highly effective. I would recommend their services 10/10 to anyone in need of animal control experts in the Keansburg NJ area!!!
Response from the owner:Hi Haider, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We’re glad we were able to figure out what was going on in the roof and get the squirrel out before the damage got any worse. The camera monitoring, one-way exclusion, sealing, and trimming back the nearby branches were all important parts of making sure the problem was handled properly. We really appreciate your trust and recommendation, especially for anyone in Keansburg dealing with squirrel or wildlife issues. Glad we could help get things quiet again.

Hello everyone now I’m no wordsmith nor do do social media so bear with me please. On a Saturday morning about 2 am my wife says there’s something flying around in the attic which we use for storage etc but it’s used daily. I called every number frantically and by all means I’m a man’s man but that little bat owned the house lol. So Frank aka Batman as I got em in my contacts came twice. First couldn’t find it he left said give me a call if you see it and I’ll come back. So about 5 or 6 hrs later Frank came in and took care of business. This guy cares about the animals and he’s very knowledgeable about the business he’s in. Thank you Frank and seriously thank you again.
Response from the owner:Hi Mike, This one definitely made us smile. Thanks for taking the time to leave such a great review, and I have to admit, “Batman” is a pretty good contact name. We’re glad Frank was able to come back out and get the bat handled safely. We really appreciate you recognizing the care he puts into the animals as well as the job itself.

Raccoon Removal Near Freehold FAQ

How do I know if a raccoon is in my attic?

Raccoons are heavier than mice or squirrels. You may hear slower walking, thumping, scratching, or movement at night. Other signs include damaged soffits, roofline gaps, droppings, odor, or disturbed insulation.

Can I seal the hole after I hear raccoons?

Do not seal an opening until the animal situation is understood. If a raccoon or babies are still inside, sealing the entry point can create odor, noise, damage, and a more complicated removal problem.

Does raccoon removal include repairing the entry point?

When conditions are right, exclusion work may include sealing gaps, screening vents, repairing soffits or fascia, securing roofline access, and recommending cleanup if nesting material, droppings, or damaged insulation are present.

How much does raccoon removal cost near Freehold?

Pricing depends on access, height, number of entry points, babies, attic contamination, chimney or soffit damage, and the amount of exclusion work needed. A service call or inspection is used to determine the right scope.
