Last year, we had an exclusion done to repair holes that squirrels had chewed in the side of our house and to make sure they were all out of our attic.

Today, I woke up to the pitter patter of little squirrel feet running across our attic. Or, it could have been mouse feet. Our pest control man came out today, and we couldn’t find any holes when we walked around the house. There’s a slight possibility that a squirrel could have gotten in through the vents on the side of the house, and if that’s the case it’s an easy fix. If it’s mice, it’s an easy fix as well. He’s going to bring a trap by tomorrow and put it in our crawl space, and he’ll also put some bait in my attic. I plan to be locked in the bathroom in case squirrels and mice come falling out.
