Mantoloking is one of the narrowest stretches of the barrier island, and its raised, post-Sandy homes leave sheltered space that animals den in. We connect you with a licensed local operator who removes the animal, seals the entry and cleans up.
Local knowledge
Mantoloking is one of the narrowest stretches of the barrier island, ocean on one side and Barnegat Bay on the other, with large single-family homes on deep lots. Many were rebuilt and raised after Superstorm Sandy, so a lot of houses now sit on pilings with open space underneath.
That raised construction is exactly where raccoons and skunks like to den — the sheltered area under an elevated house, deck or outdoor shower. Along the bay, raccoons also work the bulkheads and boat areas, and gulls nest on flat and low-slope roofs.
With most homes seasonal, animals settle in during the quiet months. The reliable fix is to remove the animal and then screen or close the under-house and deck openings so nothing re-dens in the same protected spot.
