Why Raccoons Target South Jersey Homes
Raccoons are always looking for shelter, warmth, and easy food sources, and South Jersey homes offer exactly what they want. Understanding why they target your property makes it easier to keep them out for good:
South Jersey's Climate and Habitat
South Jersey’s mix of wooded areas and residential neighborhoods creates the perfect environment for raccoons to thrive. When temperatures dip or storms roll in, they move toward homes for protection and warmth.
Peak Breeding Season (March-July)
During the spring and early summer, mother raccoons search for safe, quiet places to raise their young. Attics, crawl spaces, and garages become ideal nesting spots because they offer security from predators.
Common Entry Points and Attractants
Raccoons are strong and resourceful. Loose shingles, broken or unprotected vents, chimneys without caps, and gaps along the roofline provide easy entry points. Attractants like unsealed trash cans, pet food left outdoors, vegetable gardens, and bird feeders make your property even more inviting.
Our Complete Raccoon Removal Process
Raccoons can be persistent, messy, and surprisingly clever, so removing them takes a careful, step-by-step approach. Our teams clear them out safely and make sure your home stays protected long after they’re gone.
-
Inspection and Assessment
We start by checking your attic, roofline, crawl spaces, and any area where raccoons may be nesting or traveling. By spotting signs like torn insulation, fresh droppings, or obvious entry points, we pinpoint exactly where they’re getting in and make a plan for removal.
-
Humane Trapping and Baby Raccoon Handling
We use safe, non-lethal traps that follow New Jersey wildlife laws to capture raccoons without harming them. If baby raccoons are present, we gently reunite them with their mother before relocating the entire family to a proper outdoor habitat.
-
Exclusion, Sealing, and Damage Repair
Once the raccoons are out, we close off every gap, vent, and opening they used so they can’t force their way back inside. We also repair the damage they caused, reinforcing vulnerable areas to keep your home secure.
-
Attic Sanitization and Prevention Planning
We remove contaminated insulation, droppings, and nesting materials to make your attic clean and healthy again. We then outline clear prevention steps to keep raccoons away for good, giving you long-term peace of mind.

Your Raccoon Removal Questions Answered
How long does the removal process take?
Most raccoon removals take a few days, since traps need time to safely capture the animals. Once they’re caught, we move quickly to seal entry points and begin repairs.
Does homeowners' insurance cover raccoon damage?
Many policies cover damage caused by raccoons, especially when it involves structural issues or contaminated insulation. We’ll document the full extent of the problem so you have all the necessary information when filing a claim.
Can I remove raccoons myself, or do I need a professional?
Raccoons are resourceful animals, and their presence, especially if there are hidden babies, can make DIY removal difficult and potentially unsafe. Our team handles removal safely, lawfully, and humanely to protect both your property and the animals.
What happens to the trapped raccoons?
We relocate raccoons to an appropriate natural environment far from your home, following all NJ wildlife guidelines. This keeps them safe while preventing them from returning to your property.
