Long-Term Solutions To Keep Wildlife Out For Good

A quick removal that leaves the entry point open is just an invitation for the next animal. UFO handles everything from trapping to cleanup to lasting repairs so the problem stays solved.

Animal Trapping

We use humane, no-kill trapping methods to remove nuisance animals from your home, attic, and property without putting wildlife or your family at risk.

Animal Home Repair

Our expert animal home repair fixes the damage animals leave behind and strengthens the areas they used to get inside so the same weak spots don’t become a recurring problem.

Wildlife Exclusion

We locate and seal gaps around your roofline, soffits, vents, chimney, crawl space, and foundation using durable, wildlife-resistant materials built to hold up season after season.

Animal Removal

From attics and wall voids to crawl spaces and the spaces beneath decks and sheds, we remove animals wherever they’ve set up and do it in a way that’s safe for everyone involved.

Attic Remediation and Sanitation

We remove droppings in attic, nesting materials, and damaged insulation, then sanitize and deodorize the space so your attic is clean, safe, and free of the odors that attract new animals.

Animals That Could Be Hiding Out in Your Attic or Basement

Mystic Island’s location along the waterways and marsh edges of Ocean County creates ideal cover for wildlife moving between wooded areas and residential neighborhoods. 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

Raccoons are strong enough to pry open soffits, tear through rotted fascia, and force their way into chimneys. Our raccoon removal evicts them from attics and roof spaces before they do more structural damage.

Squirrels

Once squirrels find a gap near a roofline or vent, they chew their way in and start nesting fast. We remove squirrels and seal the openings to stop the chewing and scratching from continuing.

Flying Squirrels

We remove flying squirrels through the small roofline gaps they use and close those openings before numbers grow.

Bats

Bats roosting in your attic or along upper wall voids need to be handled with care. We use humane exclusion methods to guide them out safely while blocking the entry points they’ve been using to return.

Opossums

Opossums tend to shelter under decks, sheds, and in crawl spaces, leaving behind waste and nesting debris. We remove them and address the conditions that drew them in.

Groundhogs

Burrows near foundations, walkways, and shed slabs can quietly undermine the soil around your home’s structure. We remove groundhogs and fill existing tunnels to stop the damage.

Skunks

Skunks den beneath porches, deck footings, and outdoor structures. Skunk removal relocates them before they spray or dig deeper into the space under your home.

Other Wildlife

Birds nesting in exhaust vents, snakes taking up residence in crawl spaces, and other nuisance animals are also handled with species-appropriate removal and exclusion methods.

How Changing Seasons Can Drive Animals Into Your Home

Wildlife doesn’t follow a schedule, but activity does shift with the seasons. Understanding those patterns is part of how we protect your home year-round.

Fall & Winter

When the temperature drops along the Jersey Shore, wildlife starts searching for somewhere warm, dry, and sheltered. Attics, chimneys, crawl spaces, and the areas beneath porches and decks become prime targets for animals looking to wait out the cold.

Calls during fall and winter often involve:

Raccoons pushing into chimneys and attic openings to den for the season
Squirrels gnawing through exterior trim, soffits, and vent covers to reach warmer space
Flying squirrels slipping through small gaps near the upper roofline
Skunks digging beneath decks, porches, stairs, and outdoor sheds
Opossums settling into crawl spaces and enclosed outdoor structures

Getting ahead of these intrusions in early fall is always less expensive than dealing with the damage they cause over a full winter.

Spring & Summer

Warmer months bring nesting season and litters. Animals that overwinter in your home may already be raising young by the time spring arrives, which changes how removal has to be handled.

We check for newborns and active nests before any exclusion or sealing work begins. Common warm-weather situations include:

Raccoons caring for young in attic spaces and chimney flues
Squirrels nesting inside insulation, wall gaps, and attic corners
Bats gathering in attics and voids during maternity season
Groundhogs expanding burrows near patios, sheds, and foundations
Birds building nests inside exhaust vents and covered exterior openings

How We Wildlife-Proof Your Home, Step By Step

Every job follows the same start-to-finish approach because a good removal without the right follow-through just leaves the door open for the next intrusion.

Full Inspection Of Your Home

We inspect your attic, crawl space, roofline, vents, foundation, and exterior structures to find signs of wildlife activity, nesting, and every opening animals are using to get inside.
Strategic Wildlife Removal Plan

Based on what we find, we put together a removal and exclusion plan tailored to the specific animal, how they got in, and which areas of your home need to be addressed.
Humane, Stress-Free Animal Removal

We remove wildlife using no-kill methods that are safe for your family and designed to keep the animal from being harmed in the process.
Sealing All Openings to Prevent Reentry

After removal, we seal and reinforce the entry points animals were using with materials that resist future intrusion attempts from the same species and others.

Questions About Wildlife Removal? We're Here To Help

Is wildlife removal covered by homeowners' insurance in NJ?

It depends on your policy. Some plans cover wildlife-related structural damage while others exclude it entirely. Removal and exclusion services are generally not covered. We recommend checking with your provider, and we’re happy to document our findings during the inspection to help support any claim you need to file.

Do you offer emergency wildlife removal?

Yes. If something is actively in your home and you need help quickly, call us directly. We respond as fast as possible for urgent situations and will let you know what to expect when you reach out.

Can animals in the attic affect my heating and cooling bills?

They can, and often do. Animals nesting in attic insulation flatten and contaminate the material, reducing its ability to regulate temperature. The longer wildlife stays, the more insulation performance drops and the more conditioned air escapes through damaged areas. Removal and remediation can make a real difference in what you’re spending on energy.

What time of year is wildlife activity highest in NJ?

There are two peak periods. Fall is when animals move aggressively into homes searching for shelter before the cold sets in. Spring is when nesting and breeding activity picks up and animals with young are harder to remove. That said, coastal communities like Mystic Island can see wildlife pressure year-round given the mild winters and dense surrounding habitat.

Are one-way exclusion devices safe when there may be baby animals present?

We never install one-way devices without first checking for young animals. If babies or an active nest are found, we adjust the approach to keep the family together and make sure nothing gets trapped inside. This is especially important during spring and early summer when litters are most likely to be present.

Ready To Reclaim Your Home?

Wildlife problems don’t get smaller on their own. The longer an animal is inside your attic, walls, or crawl space, the more damage accumulates and the more expensive the fix becomes.

UFO Nuisance Wildlife Control removes the animal, cleans up the mess, repairs the damage, and seals your home so it stays protected for the long haul.
