How do snakes get into my attic
Snakes will commonly enter attics through openings on the outside of the home. Non-venomous snakes are excellent climbers and will utilize mortar lines in between brick, gutter spouts, canopys, and even trees that overlap the roof line to gain access on top of your home. Once on top of your home, they will find small construction gaps or openings caused by another animal to gain access into your attic. Most homeowners think that insulation will bother snakes. Snakes are cold-blooded, and when snakes get inside your home, they will usually be found in the warmest part of the house, which in most cases is the attic.
Why do Snakes get in the attic
Snakes will enter a attic area because of two main reasons. One, is simply because it is warm, and a snake is cold blooded. The second reason, is because it is after a food source. 100% of all “snakes in the attic” calls we respond to will have a food source snake are after in common, which includes rodents birds or squirrels. All over Florida and the Greater Jacksonville area there is no shortage of squirrels, rodents, and birds. Most snakes much like other animals have adapted to urban living and finding a easy food source is what the snakes will be after.
Snake Skins In The Attic
Snakes skins found in the attic is a very common occurrence around Jacksonville, Florida. Snakes will enter attics looking for a easy food source of rodents, birds, or squirrels if those problems have occurred. However, snakes will not stay in a attic 24 hours a day, and will have to venture outside to do what they do naturally. Snake skins may be left, showing the evidence that a snake has been there at one time. If by chance you have multiple snake skins in the attic, that would lead me to believe you have had multiple snakes up there at one time, or over time, which is also common. Snakes shed once a year. Although attic spaces are not frequented enough by most homeowners, most of the activity in a attic will go unnoticed.
