5 Signs an Animal Is Living in Your Attic

Listen at night and early morning

Scratching or thumping overhead, especially at dusk or dawn, is often the first sign.

Look for damage outside

Bent vents, torn soffits and chewed roof edges show where animals get in.

Check for droppings and smells

Droppings, nesting material or a strong odor in the attic mean it is time to call.
