• Droppings in the crawl space and the attic — the waste of the animal that has moved in.
• Damage to the soffits, the vents, and the roofline — entry points chewed or pulled open.

• Noises in the walls and the chimney — animals that have found a route into the structure.

Why Ellsworth homes get wildlife

The rocky loam and glacial till that surrounds Ellsworth is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what wildlife need to thrive. The rocky coast, forests, and mountains adds harborage, and the humid continental climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Atlantic, lakes, and rivers see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.
