The telephone just never stops ringing here at North Fulton Exterminating when it comes to frantic folks having problems with critters in the atticIt's amazing....especially in the wintertime when it is coldEvery now and then, it turns out to be a raccoon or ‘possum, but the vast majority of the times, its rodents.....rats, mice and squirrels!

Rodents (gnawing animals) love the atticYepIt was definitely made for rodentsThat's mainly because the attic provides "shelter from the storm", if you know what I meanThe attic is dry, warm, quiet......no predators and no peopleJust right for snuggling up for a cold winter's nap and having lots of little babies in a safe environmentInsulation makes great nesting material too!

The two most common rodents found in attics are roof rats and gray squirrels, but flying squirrels are frequently there alsoAnd, sometimes, you find all three inhabiting the same atticOh....I forgot to mention miceThat makes four!
