Attics are one of the most overlooked and often ignored areas in most homes.  If you are like me, you only go into the attic to bring down or put up holiday decorations.  Because it is widely overlooked, it is an easy place for unwanted wildlife to take up residence.

The first signs that you will most likely notice that a critter has been living above you is often discovered in the form of the pitter patter of little feet or tiny pellet droppings.  Squirrels, raccoons or other rodents will often enter attics through vents, loose boards or the eaves of your home.  Squirrels and raccoons have even been known to chew through soffits and shingles to get inside.  Mice are so small; they can squeeze into the smallest of spaces.

These pests do not seam to be happy just living among us.  Their fantastically sharp teeth cause considerable damage by chewing on electrical wires.  Exposed wires hold a tremendous fire hazard for homeowners.  Many homeowners have also found that they need to replace the insulation in their attics once unwanted critters move in.  Insulation can be damaged by the parasites on the wildlife, nesting, or feces and urine.

When dealing with nuisance wildlife, you will need to eliminate access to their nesting sites, remove the nests and feces, disinfect the area to remove parasites and deodorize the attic. This is a job that you want to call out the professionals for.  Call a nuisance wildlife expert that can help rid your life of rodents and squirrels living in your attic.

Most NJ and NYC residents would probably like the opportunity to study a map of their city which indicates bed bug infested areas and bed bug free zones. In 2006 the New York Times published such a map. The color coded map was a little difficult to analyze, yet even with the proper evaluation of the map the conclusion of which NYC areas are bed bugs free might be wrong.

A lot of bed bugs infestations are not reported. Also, if the map is not updated every week the map will be out of date because the bed bugs are excellent travelers. Based on statistics from other municipalities some experts suggest that the majority of bed bug infestations treated by pest control experts will not be reported to the city’s health department. So a NJ or NYC resident could look at his bed bug map and decide to move to a particular street because the map shows it’s a bed bugs free zone. However, after moving in the neighborhood he realizes it’s filled with the critters and thus is inspired to say something like “Dang!”
