There are a few basic reasons that wildlife wants to be in your home. To start, your home provides the perfect habitat for wildlife to thrive. In the attic you have a dark remote place that gives the animals the security that they are looking for. As for rodents, the insulation gives them the perfect burrowing material to feel at home. As for squirrels, raccoons, possums, etc. the insulation is the perfect material to make their nesting area to have kits in the attic. That time period is in the Spring and Fall. While we get calls all year round for the animals in the attic, we get an increase in calls around the mating and birthing seasons.

Another factor to consider is the weather. Just like people, when the weather gets cold the animals want to get into a warm area. What better area than in your attic or crawlspace to get out of the elements? The animals will be out of the wind and cold, they can store food in these areas as well.

Wildlife animals can cause major damage to a home. Once wildlife keys in on your home, they can cause exterior damage, to find a way into the attic space. Depending on the animal, the entry point can be as small as a quarter of an inch and get as big as a grape fruit. While rodents are more stealthy in how they get into the structure, raccoons and squirrels are more noticeable. Your first visual sign is usually wood that has either been chewed or pulled out. Some of these holes will be tucked away, while others will be left open to water damage. Next, you will see insulation on the roof or ground. Once the animals get inside the home, that is when the damage can become expensive to repair.

Once the wildlife gets inside the home, the first thing the start to damage is the insulation. Regardless of the animal, they will urinate and defecate in the attic multiple times of day until they are removed. The soiled insulation will bring down the R-Value, which is the guideline to how thick your insulation should be. That value is set based on the zone you live in through out the country. When the R-Value is lower than it should be, then that can affect how your home holds in the air in the summer, and the heat in the winter.

Wildlife can damage your insulation with urine and fecal matter, they can damage your heating and cooling ducts. And last but not least they can chew thru your electrical wires and cause fire hazard in your home!
