They can fit through the smallest of openings, and once they have access, can do significant damage to wiring and drywall. Like squirrels, they love to gnaw which can lead to dangerous situations.<\/p>\n<p>Raccoons are larger pests that enter a home through openings or a chimney that isn&#8217;t protected with a mesh covering. They&#8217;ll make their way to the attic where they&#8217;ll make their den.<\/p>\n<p><strong>German Cockroaches<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They need food and moisture and your home has both readily available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brown Recluse Spiders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These creepy crawlies can live in your home in undisturbed areas like crawl spaces, stored boxes in the attic, or closets that aren&#8217;t used frequently. Their bite is venomous.<\/p>\n<p>Before winter rolls in full strength, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/contact-us.php\">call us at Allison Pest Control<\/a> and let us set up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/free-pest-inspection.php\">free home inspection<\/a>.
