Professional Raccoon Control Services in Union, NJ
Raccoons in the Attic
Raccoons get into Union attics through loose fascia, gable vents, or gaps where an addition meets the original roof. We find the entry and check where the animal has been nesting.
Raccoons in the Chimney
Union's older capes and colonials often have chimneys that were never capped, and a raccoon can climb down to the smoke shelf with little effort. We check for nesting and young before any decisions are made.
Raccoons Under Decks, Porches & Sheds
Back porches, decks, and detached garages are common raccoon dens in Union. We check the ground and framing around each one for burrows and openings.
Raccoons in Soffits & Roof Vents
A raccoon can tear vinyl soffits and pry up roof vents with ease. We walk the full roofline of Union homes, since damage often appears in more than one spot.
Raccoons Raiding Trash & Pet Food
Curbside trash, open compost, and pet food left out at night keep raccoons visiting Union neighborhoods. Securing these is an easy first step.
Raccoon Damage to Property
Damaged shingles, crushed ductwork, and soiled insulation are common after a raccoon has stayed in an attic. We document the damage so Union homeowners can plan repairs.
Raccoon Control for Homes and Businesses
Whether it's a single-family home in Vauxhall, an apartment building, or a business on a busy corridor, every Union property starts with an inspection before any removal plan is set.

Live Trapping & Relocation
Live trapping can be the right choice for a Union raccoon denning under a detached garage, inside an enclosed porch, or somewhere a one-way door won't work. Our technicians set, monitor, and remove traps, and residents never handle a captured animal. Wildlife trapping and relocation are regulated in New Jersey, which is why current NJDEP Fish & Wildlife rules are checked before a Union raccoon is moved. Humane raccoon trapping throughout Union.
Exclusion & One-Way Doors
Before a one-way door goes over a Union entry point, we confirm whether a mother has kits inside, since young raccoons can't follow her out. With no kits present, the adult leaves on its own after dark and finds the way back closed. When there is a litter, we keep the mother and her young together and plan the exclusion around them rather than shutting her out. One-way raccoon exclusion for Union homes.
Chimney Capping & Entry Point Sealing
Union's housing ranges from older capes to postwar colonials, and each has its own weak spots, from open flues to loose gable vents. We cap chimneys with heavy-gauge caps, reinforce soffits with metal, put sturdy guards on vents, and secure the base of porches and sheds with buried mesh. No repair stops a raccoon from ever looking, but it takes away the openings that made the house easy. Chimney caps and entry sealing in Union.
Attic Cleanup & Damage Repair
A raccoon that has spent weeks in a Union attic usually leaves a latrine in one corner, a trail of crushed insulation, and ducts that have sagged or split under its weight. Raccoon droppings can carry parasites, so the cleanup should be handled by a crew in protective gear rather than by the homeowner. We remove and bag the material, disinfect the area, and walk you through the repairs. Raccoon cleanup and repair in Union.

Signs of a Raccoon Problem in Union
Raccoons are nocturnal, so Union residents usually hear them at night, often as heavy footsteps, banging, or a dragging sound in the attic or walls. Outside, look for torn soffits, lifted roof vents, trash bins tipped over by morning, droppings collected in one spot on a roof or deck, and scratching or debris in the chimney.
Across the Northeast, raccoons are one of the wildlife species most closely associated with rabies and are recognized as a rabies-vector species. For Union residents, that means any raccoon seen moving around in daylight, acting disoriented, or inside a living space should be reported to local animal control, not approached or cornered. Most raccoons around homes aren't sick, but they're never animals to handle.
