It will really depend on what the Macon animal is, if it is a rodent infestation, rats, mice or squirrels are the main culprits, then the damage will probably be considerable if they are left alone up there for even a single month, this is because rodents have front teeth that never stop growing so they have to chew constantly on hard items to keep the teeth in check. If they are living in your attic then the hard items together chew on are mostly your roof beams and your electrical wiring.



If they chew enough of your roof beams then your house will fall down, if they chew enough electrical wiring you will probably get a short circuit may result in a fire and a fire in your attic usually means the whole house is ashes. On top of the damage the rodents do they also will be using your attic as a toilet so you will have droppings everywhere and urine markers they have left to warn other creatures away. And I'm not finished yet, the other thing and this is the last thing they'll do is they'll tear up your insulation, they do this to make nests out of it but to fix this damage you'll probably need to replace most of your insulation, which is not cheap.

I know what you're thinking, thank God I don't have rodents, I only have a raccoon or maybe opossums, well Georgia raccoons and I opossums will both do a lot more damage to your insulation that any mouse can do simply because they are a much larger animal, much more powerful and they have the instruments to tear things up really badly. They will also be using your attic is a toilet and these animals poop about the same size as a medium dog, and they pee about the same as well. On top of that both these animals because of their size and strength can do serious damage enlarging or even making new entrances and exits to your attic.

The final group of Macon animals you are likely to have in your attic are the kind that fly, the most common are pigeons and bats. Bats are migratory so at most they will be there for six months of the year but given the opportunity they will return to her favorite roost every year. Some bats can squeeze through a hole little more than a half inch wide so they are very hard to keep out. Pigeons are just messy and disgusting, they build nests that are usually infested with insect pests and a adult pigeon poops up to 1 pound of excrement per week so if you have a small flock, say 20 birds and they poop half the weekly output into your attic that is 10 pounds of pigeon poop every week, a mess that someone is going to have to clean up.
