Keep Squirrels and Bats Out of Your Dayton Attic
Winter is not only rodent season—it’s also when squirrels and bats seek shelter in attics, chimneys, and crawl spaces. While these animals are part of the ecosystem, their presence inside a home can cause structural damage, health risks, and costly repairs.
At 7 Star Animal Control & Repairs LLC, we provide expert wildlife removal and pest control services throughout Dayton, Troy, Miami County, and Montgomery County. Our team focuses on safe removal, prevention, and long-term protection for your home.
Common Winter Attic Invaders
-
Squirrels: Seeking warmth, squirrels can gnaw on wood, insulation, and wiring. Their constant chewing may create fire hazards.
-
Bats: These small mammals look for safe roosts and may leave droppings (guano) that carry fungi like histoplasmosis, which can affect respiratory health.
Signs of an Infestation
-
Scratching, squeaking, or fluttering sounds in the attic.
-
Torn insulation or nesting materials.
-
Dark stains or droppings near vents, soffits, or chimneys.

Foul or musky odors.
