Wildlife Removal Before & After Photos

A new homeowner in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ kept hearing "scurrying noises" in his attic during the day and was afraid that he might have a creature living up there, so he called Little Rascals for help. As soon as we arrived, we starting inspecting the exterior of the home. Moments into our inspection, we noticed an area of the fascia, above the gutters by the builders gap, that appeared to be damaged. As we got closer a flying squirrel flew right out of the opening! Looks like the owner has an infestation of flying squirrels in his home!

First, we installed a one-way device over the opening and enclosed it temporarily with hardware cloth. Next, we set up several baited devices nearby. The one-way is designed to allow the squirrels to leave the area, but prevent them from getting back in. A short while later, we retrieved all the flying squirrels and relocated them to a new, humane location.

Due to the builders gap, the home is still vulnerable to future nuisance wildlife and bird infestations. To solve that, we installed Pest-Blok over the builders gap. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict airflow, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against squirrels, pests, birds, and all other nuisance wildlife. Now the home is properly protected from any future nuisance wildlife intrusions. 

Recently, we received a frantic call from a homeowner in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ who spotted a raccoon trying to get into her home! Once we arrived we spoke with the owner and she had mentioned that the raccoon was trying to rip apart her gable vent to get into the attic. Fortunately, the homeowner scared it away!

After a thorough inspection of the home, we didn't find any other access points that the raccoon could use to enter the home, just the gable vent. In order to protect the gable vent, we installed a louvered vent guard. A louvered vent guard is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel. It won't rust, is customized to accommodate vents of all shapes and sizes, and properly secures the gable vents from birds, bats, and all nuisance wildlife and pests!

A couple of raccoons had decided that the attic of this home in Wall Township, NJ, was a great place to reside in, so they did just that and the homeowner wasn't exactly a fan of that idea. So he called Little Rascals for help and we were sent out to safely remove and exclude them. 

Since the raccoons were entering the attic via the soffit-return, we installed a positive set over that area. This is comprised of a nose cone, which will guide the raccoons into a two-gaited, heavy-duty device that is attached to it. This is called a positive set, because we are positive that the raccoons will have no other way to exit except through our device! We also placed several baited devices nearby. A short while later, we successfully & safely retrieved the raccoons and relocated them to a new, humane environment.

We then went back to our trucks, fashioned a piece of sturdy metal flashing, and installed it over the soffit-return. We also disinfected the attic and installed a sturdy attic fan cover over the attic fan. The attic fan cover is made of heavy-duty 18 Gauge expanded Galvannealed steel mesh and will prevent raccoons, as well as all nuisance wildlife, from gaining access into the home via the attic fan.

This homeowner in Atlantic Highlands, NJ, had a slight wildlife issue. A groundhog was burrowing against the foundation of her pool in several areas. A short while after setting up our retrieval devices, we successfully and safely retrieved the groundhog and relocated it to a new, humane environment.

To prevent groundhogs and other nuisance wildlife from burrowing against the pool foundation, we installed Dig Defense® around the entire pool foundation. Dig Defense® is a below-ground fence system that is 15 inches deep and 4 feet across. It protects structures against invasive nuisance wildlife and feral animals. Now, the area is properly protected against groundhogs and other nuisance wildlife. 

A new customer in Little Silver, NJ contacted our Little Rascals Nuisance Wildlife Division after seeing a raccoon rip apart his gable vent and enter his home. Over time, the gable vents get weathered and dry rotted. This makes it easier for raccoons as well as squirrels to break into the home. 

After we safely removed and relocated the raccoons to a new, humane environment, we disinfected the attic area and removed the old, broken gable vent. We did offer to replace the gable vent, but the homeowner mentioned that he will fix it on his own at a later date. As a temporary solution, 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 raccoons, squirrels, pests, birds, and all other nuisance wildlife.
