Make Your Attic Smell Unpleasant
The smell of ammonia or mothballs will repel an animal from wanting to stay in your attic. Soak ammonia in a rag and place it in a container or pour a small amount of ammonia in a pan.
Make Your Attic Bright
Animals like to make their homes in darker locations because it makes them feel safe which is why your attic is ideal for them. If you keep the area brightly lit, they won’t feel safe and will eventually leave.
Make Your Attic Loud
Although animals can be quite the noise maker themselves, external noise such as that from humans will scare them away. You can either keep the television on or the radio blaring when you’re not home to accomplish this.
Make Your Attic Scary
If you already have a pet or are considering one, its presence may scare other animals away from your home. If you don’t own pets, the scent (i.e., urine of a fox or bobcat) of a predatory animal may repel them.
