Rodents are sometimes unwelcome visitors in living accommodations. They move in to take advantage of a steady supply of food and water, but these freeloaders can cause of thousands of dollars in damage to homes each year. They scurry, swim, climb, and can often be heard moving about. Mice and rats in the ceiling are a precursor to other animals finding a way into and inhabiting your attic. Raccoons and squirrels are frequent visitors who feed on mice; once the mice are gone, they continue eating the rat's food supply.
