Wildlife Removal Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Freehold, NJ, was having an issue with squirrels invaded his attic space, so he contacted Little Rascals Nuisance Wildlife Removal for help. After a thorough inspection, we determined that the squirrels were entering the home via the gable vent. Nuisance wildlife infesting a home via the gable vents is very common. Over time, the gable vents get weathered, and raccoons, squirrels, birds, and bats have no problem ripping away these vents to find shelter inside a home.

To safely remove the squirrels, we temporarily installed hardware cloth over the gable vent and attached a one-way device to it. We also placed several baited devices nearby. The one-way device allows the squirrels to safely exit the area, but prevents them from getting back in. A short while later, we successfully retrieved all the squirrels and relocated them to a new, humane location.

In order to prevent any future intrusions from squirrels, and other nuisance wildlife, from gaining access into the home, we installed Pest-Blok over the gable vent. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict the airflow to the attic, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against squirrels, raccoons, and all other nuisance wildlife and birds.

This customer in Freehold, NJ had an issue with bats getting into his attic via the louvered gable vent. In order to safely retrieve the bats, we installed a bat cone over the gable vent and then temporarily enclosed the area with hardware cloth. The bat cone will allow the bats to safely leave the area but prevent them from getting back in. A short while later, we successfully removed all that bats from the home. Now all that's left is to prevent them from getting back in.

To do that, we installed a louvered gable vent cover over the louvered vent. This material is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel (which means it won't rust) and is customized to accommodate vents of all shapes and sizes! Now the gable vent is properly protected from bats, birds, raccoons, and all other nuisance wildlife!

After spotting a flying squirrel entering his attic, this homeowner in Morganville, NJ immediately called Little Rascals for help and we were sent out. As we inspected the property, we discovered that the flying squirrels were able to gain access into the home by squeezing through the builders gap. A builder's gap is a gap between the fascia board and roof decking and it's caused when roof decking is stopped too short and isn't flush with the fascia. It's meant to help with airflow to the attic, but nuisance wildlife and pests view this as an open invitation into your property!

To safely retrieve the flying squirrels, we installed a positive set, temporarily enclosed the entire area off with hardware cloth, and set up several baited devices nearby. A positive set is comprised of a nose cone that is attached to a two-gaited, heavy-duty device and the nose cone will safely guide the flying squirrels into the device. It's called a positive set, because we are positive that the squirrels will enter the device.

A short while later, we retrieved the flying squirrels and relocated them to a new, humane and safe environment. We then removed our retrieval devices, disinfected the area, and installed trim coil over the entire length of the builder's gap to prevent any future infestations from squirrels or any other nuisance wildlife.

Now that we have removed all the squirrels from this home in Marlboro, NJ and relocated them to a new, humane location, we're back at the property to repair the damage they done. The squirrels had ripped apart the shingles near the gutter to gain access to the attic. After disinfecting the area, we began to repair the damages. First, we cut a piece of sturdy metal flashing and installed it over the opening. Next, we applied roof grit to the flashing to blend it in with the color of the roof. Afterward, we applied a premium adhesive to the area and spread it across the flashing in order to hold the roof grits in place. Now the damages are repaired and the home is free of squirrels!

Recently, we were sent out to a home in Forked River, NJ to remove a raccoon that had infested the customers attic. When we arrived and inspected the home, we discovered that the raccoon completely ripped off the customers gable vent! This isn't uncommon because over time, the gable vents get weathered and nuisance wildlife have no trouble ripping away the gable vents to find shelter inside a home.

In order to safely retrieve the raccoon, we installed a positive set over the gable vent, temporarily enclosed the area off with hardware cloth, and set up several baited devices nearby. A positive set is made up of a nose cone that is attached to a two-gaited, heavy-duty device. The nose cone is going to safely guide the raccoon into the device. It's called a positive set, because we are positive that the raccoon will enter the device! As a matter of fact, a short while later, we successfully retrieved the raccoon and relocated it to a humane environment!

To prevent reinfestation from any additional raccoons, we installed a brand new gable vent and then enclosed it off with a louvered vent guard. This material is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel, which means that it won't rust. It is also customized to accommodate the shape and size of the newly installed gable vent and will properly secure the area from all nuisance wildlife!
