Not certain if you have an animal infestation in your attic and too squeamish to check? Here are signs you might have animals in your attic:
Rodents and other pests are masters at squeezing themselves through tiny holes, cracks, and crevices. Any little crack or hole is seen as an open invitation for a critter to come in and take up residence in your attic.
Rodents can climb trees, but can also enter your attic through other routes. They may find holes in your roof, or find a way into your garage and climb all the way up inside walls to nest in your warm attic insulation. Rodent control exclusion is the only way to stop them from returning.
Rodents and other animals like your attic because it’s convenient and warm, often arriving when it’s to escape the cold. Your box of Christmas decorations is a cozy place to curl up or better yet, rodents love to get into the warm, fuzzy insulation and make a nest!
Insulation is also a great place for rodents to reproduce, as the attic is a safe haven for critters. It’s quiet, dark, and rarely do people enter it. Regardless of the reasons rodents love your attic, Attic Projects can remove the waste and damage left behind from a rodent infestation, then rodent exclusion services, ensure you have eradicated the rodent problem for good.
You might think a cute little mouse couldn’t do much damage to your attic, but oh how wrong you are. Those little critters can cause thousands of dollars’ worth of damage to your home.
Rodents are chewers. They can chew through just about anything – from electrical wires to drywall to plastic containers. The professionals at Attic Projects have seen it all! Chewed electrical wires in your attic can be a fire hazard. Think of all that insulation in your attic and a frayed wire – frightening stuff!
Holes in walls from chewing can entice other rodents to take up residence in your attic as well as allow water to enter, which then could lead to a mold problem.
Rodents urinate and defecate on everything, and their waste is very harmful to humans.
Most times, when there is a rodent infestation in your attic, all the insulation will need to be replaced.
Rodents carry dangerous diseases, harmful bacteria, and allergens that can cause illness and respiratory issues. If you discover rodents in your home, you should get the problem taken care of right away!
Infectious diseases carried by rodents shouldn’t be taken lightly. These diseases can cause fatal respiratory issues in humans. It’s known that mice and rats can spread more than 35 diseases, through either the handling of alive or dead animals, rodent feces and urine, or bites and saliva.
An infected rodent can also infect humans with fleas, ticks, and mites. Some rodents also carry ringworm and tapeworms that humans can contract.
Although these critters may be cute, they are definitely a hazard to your health.
Rodent exclusion from your attic is not a weekend DIY project. Traps and poisons are temporary and don’t actually prevent rodents from coming back. Plus, who wants to remove harmful decaying animals without the proper equipment?
Only a professional can truly find all the points of entry and seal them up for good. Our professionals also use high-grade sprays and cleaners that remove and sanitize the germs and bacteria rodents carry and leave behind in their feces and urine. When suffering from a true rodent infestation, rodent exclusion performed by yourself is not recommended.
If you notice unwelcome critters in your attic, a rodent exclusion expert at Attic Projects can remove them from the space for you. Many homeowners go the route of using traps or poisons to remove current rodents, but that isn’t removing the source of the problem. Holes and cracks are where the rodents are coming in. If those entry points are not sealed, your problem is not gone.
Exclusion rodent control is when a professional will thoroughly search your attic, identifying all the entry points that critters are using to get access. These areas will be sealed off, so rodents or other animals will no longer be able to gain access to your attic.
While the professionals rodent-proof your attic, they will remove any soiled insulation and inspect electrical wires, drywall, and other areas that could have been chewed. Our team employs innovative rodent exclusion techniques to ensure your attic never has rodents again.
Although these critters may be cute, they are definitely a hazard to your health.
Attic Projects’ licensed and bonded rodent exclusion contractors can rodent proof your attic while ensuring all entry points are sealed. You can rest easy knowing your home will be in good hands with our professionals.

The entire team at Attic Projects were amazing to work. We hired them to sanitize and install vapor barriers in our basement/crawl space. Joe was our project manager and he did an outstanding job in putting a plan together for us. He was always available to help with any questions. Joe presented every detail clearly and put us at ease with the plan. The team who executed the work were outstanding. Special thanks to Jeremy, Frankie and Oscar for all their hard work. They showed up on time, and were fully prepared to get the project done within the scheduled timeline.
Overall, I have nothing but great things to say about Attic Projects.
