Wildlife Problems in Bergen County, Bergen County
The mature trees and wooded lots that make Bergen 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 Bergen 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.
Animals We Remove in Bergen County
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)

Humane Removal
We match our removal method to the animal: one-way doors for squirrels and bats, live traps for raccoons, exclusion devices for colonies. Everything is humane and legal under New Jersey wildlife law. Poison is never part of the plan.

Exclusion & Prevention
After removal, we seal your home against re-entry. Heavy-gauge steel mesh, metal flashing, and industrial sealants at every entry point. We match materials to the animal - what stops a mouse won't stop a raccoon. The work is documented so you know exactly what was addressed.
