At Homeland Wildlife & Pest Control, we’ve spent over 13 years crawling through attics across San Antonio, and we can tell you — the dangers lurking above your ceiling can cost you thousands in damage, create major health risks, and put your entire home at risk.
Let’s break it down.
Squirrels, raccoons, opossums, bats, and even birds love attics. To them, it’s a warm, dry haven — and if there's an entry point, they'll find it.
Once inside, they’ll rip apart insulation, chew wires, tear up ductwork, and leave behind urine and feces that carry bacteria, parasites, and disease. Worst of all, they usually go unnoticed for weeks or even months.

Rodents and squirrels are notorious chewers. We've seen them strip the coating off electrical wires, creating a serious fire risk. According to the National Fire Protection Association, rodents are responsible for thousands of home fires each year.
If your attic hasn't been inspected lately, you might not even realize the danger overhead.

An improperly sealed or ventilated attic can trap moisture, especially in the Texas heat. Add animal urine and feces into the mix, and you’ve got a mold problem on your hands. Mold can spread quickly and lead to respiratory issues, especially for kids and elderly family members.

Animals don’t just make a mess — they reduce your home’s energy efficiency. Torn insulation means higher utility bills and a harder time keeping your home comfortable. And if your vents are clogged with nesting material? Say goodbye to proper airflow.
