Even though it is literally the roof over our heads, we don’t think about the attic very much. You might throw a few things up there that you think you’ll need in the future. In a generation or two, someone may crawl up there and find those gems you never really looked for again. Other creatures, however, find your attic a wonderful place. It’s warm, out of the wind, snow, rain, and a great place to raise a family. A family of raccoons, rats, possums, squirrels, kittens, you name it, birds and mammals find attics a wonderful place to invade.

You might hear a few odd scratches in the middle of the night. If you have trees near your home, you can write those sounds off as just branches in the wind, but often times, they’re not. That scratching is an intrusion, an invasion, an infestation that you don’t want to allow in your home. Wildlife can create a lot of damage in an attic. The obvious problem is urine and feces contaminating the area. When the aroma of feral tomcats drifts into your dinner party, that elaborate table setting just doesn’t deliver the punch you thought it might.

Damage, disease, and destruction await the unwary homeowner who ignores the problem. Don’t be that person; instead, give us at Nations Wildlife Removal a call. By servicing Central Mississippi, we cover a vast area and are the experts in dealing with unwanted wildlife inside your home.

Rats and squirrels can eat through wiring, creating a fire hazard. Mice breed at an exponential pace, and one day you might just open the attic access door and find dozens of rodents falling around you. While that’s a scene that could add to a Hollywood blockbuster, the reality is those little rodents won’t fall through the ceiling very often. They will instead burrow into the walls and throughout your home once they’ve chewed a path from the attic down.

Raccoons are one of the most intelligent and destructive animal invaders you can have in your home. But they’re not alone, the various species have their unique destructive characteristics, and you don’t want to discover just how damaging they can be.
