Signs of Wildlife Infestations
Urine stains and droppings:
If you find urine stains or any droppings in or around your home that is the obvious sign of animal infestation at your place. You will find these stains in attics, basements, or hidden corners. You can determine the size of the animal with the type of droppings. Post knowing about the dropping, it is highly advised to remove and clean the area as it will cause serious health issues and can attract other pests like lizards, ants, and bugs.
Damage:
Wild animals can severely damage your property and can enter into your attic or basements. The damage can include chewed insulation, wires, wood structures, or ductwork. Some rodents like rats and squirrels chew electrical wires and also wooden beams. Raccoons are destructive and can damage the roof.
Nests:
Your home can become their space for a nest if you are not observant. Nests or burrows are strong indicators of an infestation. Birds often make nests around chimneys, and attics, while mammals target corners or holes. Nests and burrows not only cause structural damage to your property but also make it difficult to clean the space.
Odors:
If your home is stinking even after getting cleaned there are high chances of wildlife infestation. The smell can be of feces, urine, or dead animals. Do not ignore the odor or suppress it with some room freshener. Rather, clean the area and keep an eye on animal infestation because the odor and continuous incoming will create a hazardous environment for your home.
