Humane wildlife removal in South Jersey
Raccoons, squirrels, bats, skunks and more, removed without pesticides. We also find how they got in and close it, so they stay out.
Removing the animal is only half the job
Wild animals look for shelter in attics, soffits, chimneys, crawl spaces and sheds. Once they are in, they tear up insulation, chew wiring and leave waste behind.
We carefully inspect your property, remove the animals humanely, and then deal with the reason they got in. That means sealing entry points and, when needed, repairing what they damaged.
Animals we handle in Gloucester, Camden and Burlington counties
Raccoons
Crawl spaces, chimneys and attics are favorite spots, and raccoons can do a lot of damage getting in. We inspect to find why they chose your home, trap them, release them humanely far from your property, and identify and block the openings they used.
Squirrels
Squirrels shred insulation for nests, stash food, and can harbor fleas and diseases such as leptospirosis. If they are in your attic, crawl space or chimney, we remove them and secure the entry points so they cannot return.
Bats and birds
Bats can carry rabies, and they are often active in late fall as they look for a place to hibernate. If you find a bat in a bedroom, assume it may have bitten you and seek medical advice. We safely capture bats and birds, find where they came in, and seal it. Bat work is timing-sensitive, so we will explain what applies to your home.
Skunks
Do not try to remove a skunk yourself. Skunks are nocturnal and can carry diseases such as rabies, which spread through bites rather than spray. We trap and remove skunks and block the gaps under decks, sheds and porches they use.
Opossums
Opossums are rarely dangerous, but they are nuisance animals that move into secluded spaces like crawl spaces, decks and sheds. We find where they are hiding and how they got in, release them far from your home, and make small repairs where needed.
Snakes
Most snakes in our region are not venomous, but some can bite, so please do not try to handle one. We find their hiding places, capture them safely, and help make sure they do not return to your yard, deck or home.
Groundhogs, chipmunks and moles
Digging animals can undermine sheds, decks and lawns. We trap them and, where it makes sense, install exclusion fencing around sheds and foundations so they stay out.
Please note: we do not trap or remove beavers.
What happens when you call
Clear steps, no surprises, and updates along the way.
Inspection
We look for the animals, the entry points, nesting areas and damage, and explain what we find.
Humane trapping and exclusion
Traps go in high-activity areas and are checked every 24 hours. Where it fits, we use one-way exits so animals can leave but not re-enter.
Release
Captured animals are released humanely, far from your property.
Seal and repair
We close the entry points and make light repairs. Bigger jobs, like attic restoration, are available too.
Warranty
Most of our work is warrantied. If it is breached, we come back and re-secure it.
What customers say about our wildlife work
- RaccoonsGoogle review
“Justin came out quickly to confirm what was in our attic and set a humane plan for removal. He explained the process in detail and removed the raccoon and her babies. This includes patching the holes to prevent other critters from entering, follow up checks to confirm no other issues and clean up of any residual messes left by the raccoon.”
Maria M. - BatsGoogle review
“I had bats in my walls shortly after moving into a new house and even found one in my air duct! I called Catch a Critter, and Justin came out the same day to assess the situation. He explained everything thoroughly, including what needed to be done and how state laws would affect the timing of the work.”
Dustin L. - GroundhogsGoogle review
“Justin and his Team did a phenomenal job installing fencing around the lower entry perimeter of my shed to keep out some very clever groundhogs that no other company seemed to have a solution to. … We are now Groundhog free!!”
