Wildlife Removal
Brick, NJ
From Brick Beach to Herbertsville — shore wildlife doesn't take summers off
Brick's 76,000 residents know that coastal living means sharing space with wildlife that considers your crawl space just another barrier island habitat
Where Beach Raccoons Meet Pineland Squirrels
Brick Township spans from oceanfront Brick Beach to the edge of the Pine Barrens — and gets wildlife pressure from both directions. Coastal areas deal with raccoons that raid beach parking lots and boardwalk trash. Inland Herbertsville gets squirrels migrating from the Pinelands. Your Drum Point vacation house? It sees both, depending on the season.
Why Brick?
Brick's geography between ocean and Pine Barrens creates dual wildlife pressure — coastal scavengers from the east, woodland species from the west
Common Wildlife in Brick
Storm-Tested Construction, Wildlife-Tested Every Day
Brick took massive hits from Sandy, Irene, and every nor'easter since. Many homes were raised, rebuilt, or reinforced — but contractors focused on flood protection, not wildlife exclusion. That new raised foundation keeping you above the flood line? It also created a covered shelter that every raccoon in Ocean County wants to call home.

The Post-Sandy Crawl Space Colony
01 The Problem
A waterfront homeowner raised their house 8 feet after Sandy in 2012. By 2018, they noticed an odor in summer. By 2020, the smell was unbearable during humid months. Three plumbers found nothing wrong with the pipes.
Location: Drum Point
02 What We Found
A raccoon colony had been using the raised crawl space as a latrine since shortly after construction. Six years of accumulated waste — over 100 pounds — was packed into one corner. The plastic vapor barrier had hidden it from casual inspection.
03 The Solution
Full hazmat cleanup of the crawl space, replacement of the vapor barrier, installation of heavy-gauge steel mesh on all access points, and addition of a motion-activated sprinkler system for the foundation perimeter.
The Result
The extensive cleanup could have been avoided entirely with proper screening at construction. Their contractor now includes wildlife exclusion in all raised foundation builds.
