Rats spread disease. Rats cause damage to electrical wires. Rats damage roof lines, soffits and gutters. Rats get into heating & air conditioning units & do costly damage.

If a colony is disturbed, they can become very aggressive and sting. Stings are mostly temporary, but painful. For allergic individuals a single sting may result in a serious reaction, requiring medical treatment.
Woodpeckers

Damage to wooden buildings may take one of several forms. Holes may be drilled into wood siding, eaves, window frames, and trim boards. Woodpeckers prefer cedar and redwood siding…
Squirrels

Squirrels might be cuter then rats but are every bit as much of a menace. They generally chew at the breather space along the edges of the roofline to gain entrance.
Bats

Bat waste can be very toxic and will produce a very foul smell. It can also eat through wood and screening around vents and other areas. This is because of its very high acidity.
Snakes

Snakes will sometimes enter a home, usually to follow food. If you have a snake in your house, the first thing that needs to be addressed is to make sure you don’t have a rodent problem.
Raccoons

Raccoons have very sharp claws and teeth and can rip through most anything. Females have learned they like to come inside where it is warm to have their pups.
Moles

Moles are insectivores, and they may control some insect outbreaks. However, mole activity can also cause considerable damage to lawns.
Opossums

Opossums are mainly just messy and very bothersome. The biggest problem we come across is these creatures getting inside something and not knowing how to get out.
