Frequently Asked Questions

How do raccoons and squirrels get into attics during summer?

Summer is prime time for wildlife looking for shelter, and mobile home attics are easier to access than most people realize. Raccoons and squirrels are strong, persistent, and surprisingly good at finding weak points.

Common entry points we see:

  • Gaps where the roofline meets the walls
  • Damaged or loose vent covers
  • Soft spots in fascia or soffits from previous water damage
  • Small existing cracks that animals widen with repeated effort

Once they're in, they don't just pass through. They tear insulation, chew wiring, and leave waste behind that can lead to odor and health concerns. If you're hearing scratching, thumping, or movement in the attic, especially at dawn or dusk, it's worth having it checked before the damage adds up.
