Chewing
Rodents’ front incisor teeth grow throughout their lives. They have to constantly chew to keep their teeth sharp and short. They may be using their tough teeth to gain entry to your house, or they may just be sharpening their teeth. Even with good home maintenance, animals can exploit chinks in your house’s armor. Closing holes, making repairs, and preventing access to chimneys is imperative to preventing animals from entering your house.
Nests & Latrines
Animal nests inside your house can cause health problems. Certain animals will use specific areas called latrines. Raccoons are notorious for making latrines, and their feces can carry diseases like distemper and raccoon roundworm. Remediation and proper sanitation of these nests and latrines greatly reduces your chance for disease.
