Rodents can do serious damage to the wiring in your house. They love to chew on the thermoplastic insulation protecting the wires in your house.  If you believe that you have mice or squirrels living in your house, call a pest control company promptly and have them removed. At best, these cute, furry squatters can cause thousands of dollars worth of damage to the wiring in your house. At worst, they can cause a fire. 

Symptoms of rodent damage include flickering lights or lights and outlets that no longer work. Rodents most commonly invade attics, crawlspaces, or the spaces between your floor joists. Mice and squirrels can often be heard running through the ceiling or attic when they are active at night. You can also tell their presence from the smell of urine emanating from your attic or floor space.
