Frequently Asked Questions

Wildlife damage in manufactured homes is more common than most people realize, and it tends to be discovered late. Signs to look for:

• Scratching, scurrying, or thumping sounds — especially at night for raccoons, daytime for squirrels
• Droppings or urine stains on ceilings or in vents
• Torn or displaced insulation visible through vents or access panels
• Chewed wiring, ducts, or wood — this is a fire and structural risk, not just a nuisance
• Entry points on the exterior — look for bent or missing soffit panels, torn skirting, and gaps around vents or pipe penetrations
• Staining or soft spots on the ceiling from waste accumulation

One animal can cause thousands of dollars in damage to insulation, wiring, and structure. If you're hearing activity or finding any of these signs, get it looked at before the population grows or the damage spreads.
