Squirrels In Attic Half Moon Bay

Animals in the attic can gain access to the house if there are open entry points. Mexican free-tailed bats, rodents, and other animals such as raccoons may take up residence in attics and find their way into a home. 

To prevent this from happening, homeowners should inspect the roofing of their homes regularly for any openings or weak spots that could allow animals to enter. Additionally, rodent-proofing the home is important in keeping out unwanted critters. Pet food should also be kept away from entry points and stored in sealed containers on shelves or higher up off the ground. 

If you hear a scratching noise in your ceiling at night, wild animals have likely entered your home. The most common culprits are rodents such as mice, rats, and squirrels. When wild animals find their way into our homes, they can cause extensive damage to wires and insulation materials in the ceilings and walls of the house.  Not only that, but they can also cause a variety of health and safety risks.

If you suspect there are wild animals in your home or attic, it is important to take immediate action. First, contact a professional pest control service to assess the situation and provide an effective rodent, squirrel removal, and animal removal plan. This may involve using traps or bait boxes and eliminating potential entry points for wild animals. If the rodent infestation is severe, you may need to consider a more intensive approach such as attic restoration or insulation replacement.
