1Phase 1: Find

The word exterminator signals urgency. The work has to be wildlife-safe.

If you typed raccoon exterminator, you are still in the right place. Raccoons are a wildlife removal and exclusion problem, not a spray-and-go pest issue. The job is to identify the problem, remove it correctly, close the access route, and understand whether the attic or structure needs cleanup.

Heavy movement at night

Thumping, dragging, or loud movement after dark can point to a raccoon instead of mice or squirrels.

Torn soffit or bent vent

Raccoons can pull open weak roofline materials, push through vents, and keep testing the same access route.

Droppings or attic odor

A latrine area, urine, nesting material, or flattened insulation changes the job from removal only to possible cleanup.

2Phase 2: Remove

Animal out is step one. Den check, removal, and entry repair follow in order.

The removal method is matched to the animal, the opening, the season, and local wildlife rules. Babies get accounted for first when relevant.

Inspect the activity

We look at the attic, roofline, exterior signs, timing of the noise, droppings, entry damage, and nearby attractants.

Check for babies when relevant

During spring and early summer, before final sealing we look and listen for young animals so the job does not create an odor or contamination problem.

Remove or exclude humanely

The removal method is matched to the animal, the opening, the season, and local wildlife rules.

This is where exterminator searches go sideways.

Treated as spray-and-go pest control

Raccoons are a wildlife removal and exclusion problem, not a spray-and-go pest issue. Pesticide sprays do not apply. The work is removal, exclusion, and structural repair.

Sealed before the situation was checked

Raccoons can force open soffits or vents, leave droppings or urine, and use attics as den sites. During spring and early summer, babies may be present. Closing the opening before checking the full situation can create a worse problem.

Trap and close, skip the cleanup

Trapping may be part of the answer, but the entry, baby check, and cleanup decision are what determine the real plan. A latrine or urine-soaked insulation does not go away when the raccoon does.

Some raccoon jobs end at the seal-up. Some need cleanup of latrine areas and affected insulation. The inspection decides, and you see the photos before approving next steps.

3Phase 3: Seal

Confirmed openings sealed. Then the attic gets a walk-through.

After removal and the baby check are done, confirmed openings get sealed with durable materials fastened into sound structure. Cleanup decisions come from photo evidence of the attic condition, not a generic upsell.

Seal entry points

Confirmed openings are sealed with metal, mesh, flashing, or other durable materials fastened into sound structure.

Document cleanup needs with photos

You see photos of droppings, urine, nesting, insulation damage, wiring concerns, or final condition before approving next steps.

What homeowners say

They showed me photos of everything they found, sealed every entry point, and the house has been silent since.

Sarah M., Montclair, NJ

They were the only company that actually got into the attic with me and showed me the problem instead of just pitching a price.

Dave K., Staten Island, NY

They cleared the infestation, cleaned the contamination, and got the attic inspection-ready fast. It saved the sale.

Get your free raccoon inspection

Free inspection. Written recommendation. No obligation.

I searched for a raccoon exterminator. Is this the right service?
Yes, if you mean professional raccoon removal and exclusion. We inspect the structure, remove or exclude the raccoon humanely, seal entry points, and document cleanup or restoration needs from evidence.
Why can't you just trap the raccoon and close the hole?
Sometimes that is enough. The inspection decides. Raccoons can force open soffits or vents, leave droppings or urine, and use attics as den sites. During spring and early summer, babies may be present. Closing the opening before checking the full situation can create a worse problem.
What are signs of a raccoon problem?
Heavy nighttime movement, torn soffit or fascia, bent vent covers, large droppings, musky odor, insulation pulled apart, or repeated raccoon activity around the same roofline or structure.
Do you check for baby raccoons?
Yes, when seasonally relevant or when signs point to a den. The final seal should not happen until the nesting area is checked so young animals are not trapped inside.
Will raccoons come back?
The goal is to stop return through the entry points we seal. We show you the route we found, the materials used, and the coverage terms for the work.
Are raccoon droppings dangerous?
Raccoon feces can contain roundworm eggs, and attic cleanup can stir up dust or contaminated material. Do not casually sweep or vacuum droppings. The inspection helps decide whether affected material needs professional cleanup.
Do I need new insulation after a raccoon?
Not automatically. Clean, dry insulation can stay. Replacement makes sense when sections are contaminated, compressed, torn, urine-stained, packed with nesting material, or removed during cleanup.
How much does raccoon removal cost?
It depends on entry location, access, whether babies are present, the type of repair needed, and whether cleanup or insulation restoration is required. The inspection is free, and you see the recommendation before work starts.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. NJ HIC #13VH12785800. Fully insured.
