End-To-End Animal Control Services For Your Home
You shouldn’t have to manage multiple contractors to solve one wildlife problem. UFO takes care of every step so the job gets done right and stays done.
Animal Trapping
We use humane, no-kill trapping to remove nuisance animals from your home and property safely, without putting your family or the animal at risk.
Animal Home Repair
We repair the damage animals cause and reinforce the areas they used to gain entry so a patched problem doesn’t quietly become the next point of intrusion.
Wildlife Exclusion
We seal gaps around your roofline, soffits, vents, chimney, crawl space, and foundation with materials built to resist repeated entry attempts across every season.
Animal Removal
From attic activity and wall-void nesting to animals sheltering beneath decks and outdoor structures, we remove wildlife wherever they’ve settled using safe, controlled methods.
Attic Remediation and Sanitation
We remove contaminated attic insulation, droppings, and nesting debris, then sanitize and deodorize the space so your attic is clean and no longer attractive to animals.
Animals That Could Be Nesting In Your Attic or Basement
Lacey Township borders the Pinelands and includes significant stretches of wooded and wetland habitat that push wildlife directly into residential areas year-round. We remove all of the animals commonly found inside homes here and throughout New Jersey.
Please note that UFO Nuisance Wildlife Control does not handle domestic animals like stray cats or dogs.
Raccoons are strong, determined, and capable. We remove raccoons and close the openings they exploited before they have time to establish a den.
We remove squirrels and seal their entry points to stop the chewing, scratching, and nesting from continuing.
Flying Squirrels
Flying squirrels are small, quiet, and nocturnal. We locate their entry points along the roofline and close them off after getting the animals out safely.
Bats
Bats roosting in your attic or voids need to be handled according to New Jersey wildlife regulations. We use humane exclusion to guide them out without trapping them inside and block the access points they’ve been using to return.
Opossums
Opossums shelter under decks, inside crawl spaces, and beneath sheds, leaving waste and nesting debris behind. We remove them and address the conditions that made those areas easy to move into.
Groundhogs
Burrows can undermine soil stability and cause structural problems over time. We remove groundhogs and fill existing tunnels to stop the digging at the source.
When they begin to nest, we remove skunks before odor or digging becomes a bigger problem and secure the area against future nesting.
Other Wildlife
Birds nesting in exhaust and dryer vents, snakes taking shelter in crawl spaces, and other nuisance animals are handled with removal and exclusion methods built around the specific species and situation.
How Seasonal Patterns Drive Wildlife Toward Your Home
Wildlife behavior is predictable if you know what to look for. Lacey Township’s location on the edge of the Pinelands means seasonal transitions hit local wildlife hard and push animals toward homes earlier and more aggressively than in more developed areas.
Fall & Winter
When temperatures drop across Ocean County, animals that have been ranging through the Pinelands and wetland corridors start moving toward residential areas for shelter. Attics, chimneys, crawl spaces, and the enclosed areas beneath decks and sheds become high-value targets.
Fall and winter calls typically include:
- Raccoons pushing into attics and chimney flues to den before the cold arrives
- Squirrels gnawing through exterior trim and vent covers to reach insulated spaces
- Flying squirrels slipping through gaps along upper roof sections after dark
- Skunks burrowing beneath porches, deck footings, and outdoor sheds
- Opossums moving into crawl spaces and enclosed structures for winter cover
Getting ahead of these intrusions before temperatures bottom out is almost always less costly than dealing with a full winter’s worth of nesting damage.
Spring & Summer
Warmer months bring nesting and breeding season, and animals that entered your home over the winter may already be raising young by the time spring arrives. We inspect carefully for litters and active nests before any exclusion or sealing work begins.
Spring and summer situations we handle regularly include:
- Raccoons raising young in attics, chimneys, and quiet upper spaces
- Squirrels building nests inside wall cavities and attic insulation
- Bats forming maternity colonies in attics and voids during roosting season
- Groundhogs expanding burrow systems near patios, sheds, and foundations
- Birds nesting inside exhaust vents and covered exterior openings

Everything You Should Know Before Calling
Is wildlife removal covered by homeowners' insurance in NJ?
It depends on your policy. Some homeowners’ insurance plans cover structural damage caused by wildlife, but removal and exclusion work typically aren’t included. We recommend reviewing your coverage with your provider. We document what we find during every inspection and are happy to share those findings if you need to support a claim.
Do you offer emergency wildlife removal?
Yes. If wildlife is actively in your home and you need help now, call us directly. We move quickly on urgent situations and will be straightforward with you about response time and what to expect before we arrive.
Can animals in the attic affect my heating and cooling bills?
They can, and it adds up faster than most homeowners realize. Animals nesting in attic insulation flatten and soil the material, cutting its ability to regulate indoor temperature. Add in the gaps they used to enter, and conditioned air escapes more freely than your system is designed to handle. Removal paired with insulation remediation often shows up noticeably on monthly energy bills.
What time of year is wildlife activity highest in NJ?
There are two peak windows. Fall is when animals start pushing hard into homes ahead of cold weather. Spring is when nesting and litter activity is most intense, which can make removal more complex. For Lacey Township homeowners specifically, the proximity to Pinelands habitat means wildlife pressure tends to start earlier in fall and last longer into spring than in more developed parts of the state.
Are one-way exclusion devices safe when there may be baby animals present?
We never install one-way devices until we’ve confirmed whether young animals are present. If we find a litter or active nesting inside, we adjust our approach to keep the family group together and make sure nothing is sealed in. This is a critical step during spring and early summer when young raccoons, squirrels, and other animals are most likely to be inside.
Ready To Get Your Home & Peace of Mind Back?
The longer wildlife stays inside your home, the more damage piles up and the more the repair bill grows. UFO Nuisance Wildlife Control removes the animal, cleans up the mess, repairs what was damaged, and seals your home so this isn’t something you’re managing again next season.
