The short answer
Attic Fanatics does wildlife removal across Ocean County, New Jersey. Raccoons, squirrels, bats, birds, rodents: humane removal, every entry sealed with steel mesh, cleanup when the attic needs it. NJ starting point: $3,000. Free inspection, written estimate first; same-day generally available when the schedule allows.
Ocean County Wildlife Challenges
The mature trees and wooded lots that make Ocean County attractive to homeowners also make it attractive to wildlife. Squirrels use overhanging branches as highways to your roof. Raccoons raid garbage cans and then move into attics for the winter. In Ocean County's suburban landscape, wildlife encounters are a when, not an if.
In established neighborhoods, one home with a wildlife problem often means the whole block is at risk. Animals don't recognize property lines.

Squirrel Removal
Squirrels may look cute, but they're relentless chewers that can destroy your attic. They gnaw on wood, wires, and pipes constantly because their teeth never stop growing. One squirrel chewing on electrical wires is a house fire waiting to happen.
Signs in Your Home
- Scurrying and scratching sounds, especially morning and evening
- Chew marks on wood, wires, or plastic vents
- Small droppings (like large rice grains)
Damage They Cause
- Chewed electrical wires (leading cause of attic fires)
- Gnawed PVC pipes (water damage)
- Destroyed insulation used for nesting
Raccoon Removal
Raccoons are one of the most destructive animals that invade attics. They tear through insulation, rip up ductwork, and leave behind animal waste. A single raccoon can cause thousands in damage within weeks.
Signs in Your Home
- Heavy thumping sounds at night (they're nocturnal)
- Visible damage to soffits, vents, or roof edges
- Large droppings (similar to small dog)
Damage They Cause
- Destroyed insulation (R-value loss = higher energy bills)
- Contaminated attic requiring professional feces cleanup
- Chewed electrical wires (fire hazard)
Three Steps to an Animal-Free Home
- 1
Thorough Inspection
We inspect your entire Ocean County property - attic, roof, soffits, crawl spaces, and full exterior. We identify the species, find every entry point, and assess the damage. This inspection is always free.
- 2
Humane Removal
Depending on the species, we use Havahart live traps, one-way exclusion devices, or professional snap traps. Every method we use is humane and compliant with New Jersey wildlife regulations. We never use poison - it creates more problems than it solves.
- 3
Exclusion & Prevention
Once the animals are out, we permanently seal every entry point with heavy-gauge steel mesh, metal flashing, and commercial-grade sealants. Materials are chosen to withstand the specific animals in Ocean County - raccoons need heavier gauge than mice. The exclusion plan is documented in writing before the job starts.
