Animals In The Attic?

At this time of the year, before it becomes too hot outside, take the time to go into your attic to see what’s in it. Although you may have storage items in your attic, that may not be all there is. Recently, we were on a home inspection in New Albany when we found a huge nest in the attic. Nest in attic are  usually caused by either a squirrel or birds nesting in the attic that have found access to your attic. If you find a situation like the one in this picture, most likely you have something other than your family living in your home. While wearing rubber gloves, clean up the debris and be sure to look for any signs of entry and be sure to seal the point of entry with some wire to assure that this won’t happen again.
