Long Beach Island runs eighteen miles of seasonal, tightly packed beach homes, and its raised, piling-built houses are a raccoon’s favorite cover. We connect you with a licensed local operator who removes the animal, seals the entry and cleans up.
Local knowledge
Long Beach Island runs eighteen miles down the barrier beach, from Barnegat Light and Harvey Cedars through Ship Bottom, Surf City and Beach Haven, and the housing is overwhelmingly seasonal. Homes sit shoulder to shoulder on small lots, many raised on pilings, with the ocean on one side and the bay on the other.
Raccoons are the headline animal, denning under raised decks, outdoor showers and the open space beneath elevated homes, and working the trash on rental turnover days. Gulls nest on flat roofs, snakes turn up in the dune-grass edges and garages, and rats can move through a block of tightly packed rentals.
Because most owners are only on the island part of the year, an entry point can go unnoticed for a full season. Every LBI town gets the same treatment: remove the animal, then screen the under-deck and piling spaces and seal the roofline so it can’t re-den.
