Raccoon Removal in Cherry Hill, NJ
Raccoon in your Cherry Hill attic? Here's exactly what happens next: an inspection this week, a humane removal plan matched to the season, and warrantied repairs on the entry point. Our Cherry Hill office is minutes from every neighborhood in town, so you're usually first on the morning route.
Short answer: Acorn Wildlife removes raccoons from Cherry Hill homes with one-way doors and live traps, never separating mothers from kits, then seals the entry with warrantied repairs. Most removals finish within 3 to 7 days of inspection, and our local office means same-week appointments in every Cherry Hill neighborhood.

Why Cherry Hill's Older Colonials Get Raccoons
The other driver is water. The Cooper River corridor holds one of the densest raccoon populations in Camden County, and the animals range outward through storm drains and fence lines into Erlton, Windsor Park, and the neighborhoods along Chapel Avenue. A house does not need to look neglected to get a raccoon here. It just needs one soft spot at the roofline, and most split-levels and colonials built in the 1960s have several.
Short answer: Cherry Hill's 1960s housing stock is the reason. In Barclay Farm, Kingston, and Woodcrest, sixty-year-old wooden soffit returns and gable vents sit under thin aluminum wrap, and a raccoon peels that wrap back like a lid. Add the mature oak canopy touching half the rooflines in town and the attic is a short climb.
The Cherry Hill Season to Watch
March through June is baby season, and in Cherry Hill that means most attic raccoons we open up are mothers with kits tucked behind the kneewall insulation. February brings the other classic call: loud mating-season scuffling on rooflines in Kingston and Barclay that sounds like a fight overhead. Either way, the removal method depends on what the inspection finds, which is why we never quote a raccoon job over the phone.
A Recent Raccoon Job in Cherry Hill
A Kingston split-level near Chapel Avenue: the homeowner heard slow, heavy dragging over the garage every night around 10 pm. Our inspection found a torn soffit return where the garage roof meets the main wall, plus a mother and four kits in the insulation. We hand-removed the kits, staged them securely, and she moved them to a backup den overnight. Then we rebuilt the return with hardware cloth backing and matched aluminum.

Every Acorn Job Starts With a Free Inspection
Before we quote a dollar of work, a licensed technician walks the whole property — roofline, soffits, vents, chimney, the full foundation line, the attic or crawl space, the decks and the yard — and finds every opening an animal is using, plus the ones it would use next. It takes as long as it takes: often an hour, sometimes two. There is no charge for the visit.
