Woodbridge, NJ
From Sewaren's waterfront to Colonia's woods - different neighborhoods, different wildlife
Woodbridge Township's 105,000 residents span everything from urban to suburban to waterfront - each with distinct wildlife challenges
A Tale of Two Woodbridges: Rats and Squirrels
Woodbridge Township isn't one place - it's 11 distinct neighborhoods with dramatically different wildlife. Sewaren and Port Reading near the waterfront deal with rat pressure from industrial and shipping activity. Colonia and Avenel, with their wooded lots and mature trees, are squirrel territory. Fords and Iselin, more densely developed, see both. Your wildlife problem depends heavily on which part of Woodbridge you call home.
Why Woodbridge?
Inland neighborhoods have mature suburban development with significant tree cover, while waterfront areas face industrial rat pressure - making Woodbridge a microcosm of New Jersey wildlife issues

11 Neighborhoods, 11 Different Housing Stocks
Woodbridge Township's housing ranges from Colonia's sprawling colonials on wooded lots to Port Reading's tightly-packed row homes. This diversity means no single approach works township-wide. A Colonia home with cathedral ceilings and massive attic space requires different assessment than a Sewaren cape cod near the waterfront.

The Colonia Raccoon Family
01 The Problem
A homeowner in Colonia heard heavy thumping in the attic in March. They assumed it was squirrels. By April, the sounds included what sounded like crying babies. The attic had become a raccoon nursery.
Location: Colonia
02 What We Found
A mother raccoon had entered through a rotted soffit return where the roof overhang met the garage. She gave birth to four kits. The family was using the entire 1,800 square foot attic space, with separate latrine and nesting areas.
03 The Solution
We waited until the kits were mobile (per NJ wildlife regulations), then installed one-way exclusion. The family was humanely evicted over two weeks. All soffit returns were reinforced with steel mesh, and the homeowner's overhanging tree limbs were flagged for trimming.
The Result
Complete exclusion by June. The homeowner had the attic professionally cleaned and new insulation installed. Three months of raccoon habitation caused significant insulation and structural damage.
