Raccoon Removal in Voorhees, NJ

Voorhees was built into the woods on purpose, and the raccoons never left. If you're hearing heavy thumping over a bedroom in Sturbridge Lakes or Alluvium, this page covers how they got in, what removal costs here, and how Acorn Wildlife in Cherry Hill, NJ handles it, about ten minutes up Kresson Road.

Short answer: Acorn Wildlife removes raccoons from Voorhees homes humanely, using one-way doors outside baby season and hand removal with reunion staging when kits are present, then seals the entry with warrantied repairs. Most Voorhees raccoon jobs finish within 3 to 7 days of the included inspection.

Why Do Voorhees Homes Get so Many Raccoons?

The housing stock matters as much as the woods. Colonials and contemporaries from that era have wood fascia behind vinyl wrap, louvered gable vents, and long soffit runs over garages. A raccoon doesn't need an existing hole; it makes one where the fascia has softened. Around the Echelon area and Voorhees Town Center we see more dumpster-fed raccoons testing townhome rooflines, while the lake-backed streets get den-seeking mothers every spring.

Short answer: Most of Voorhees is 1970s and 80s development laid out against preserved woods and stormwater corridors. Raccoons den in that tree cover, travel the wooded buffers behind Sturbridge Lakes and Alluvium at night, and climb straight from fence lines and gutters into vinyl soffit returns and gable vents.

When Do Raccoons Move into Attics Here?

From roughly March through June, most attic raccoons in Voorhees are mothers with kits, which changes the whole plan. We remove kits by hand and stage them in a heated reunion box so the mother moves them to a backup den herself. A one-way door on a nursing mother strands the litter in your insulation. Outside baby season, a one-way door over the sealed entry usually has the animal out in 2 to 4 nights. New Jersey restricts relocating raccoons as a rabies-vector species, so a licensed operator (NJDEP #92411B) matters here more than for any other animal.

A Recent Raccoon Job in Voorhees

A Sturbridge Lakes colonial backing to the woods: heavy thumping over the garage, and the inspection found a torn soffit return where a mother had opened the fascia. We removed four kits by hand, staged the reunion box on the roof, watched her carry each one to a backup den in the tree line, then rebuilt the return with hardware cloth backing under our Seal-Tight Warranty.

Voorhees Raccoon FAQs

We back up to the woods in Alluvium. Won't another raccoon just come back?
To your yard, yes. Into your attic, no, and that's the point of exclusion. Wooded buffers keep the raccoon population steady in Voorhees, so we seal the roofline in steel and warranty the repairs instead of pretending the woods will empty out.
How fast can you get to Voorhees?
Our Cherry Hill office is about ten minutes away, so inspections almost always happen the same week you call. Outside baby season, most raccoons are out within 2 to 4 nights after that. Call or Text (856) 398-1028.
What if the animal in my yard is a stray cat, not a raccoon?
We handle wild animals only. For stray dogs and cats in Voorhees, call the Camden County Animal Shelter in Blackwood, or the Voorhees Animal Orphanage on Cooper Road right here in town.
