Your home has a lot to offer for wild animals. Shelter, warmth, food, water; don’t let animals take advantage of you. animals can utilize the cracks and holes on the roof to gain entry to the attic. Damage to the eaves or near the gutters can allow them to enter walls of your home.
Animals with poor climbing skills (such as rabbits, rats, and skunks) can enter from lower cracks or holes in the walls or foundation of the house. Clean up the yard before the snow starts to fall, in order to prevent dens and burrows to be made by your house.
