Default Attic rodents

Has anyone been told there has been a lot of rodent activity lately in attics? Bats, palm mice etc.

Palm rats will get into your attic. Don't let trees and bushes get too close to the roof line.

I think there was a recent post about a contractor going around door to door and saying that (to get into your house for business). Is that your case?

Oddly, a Massey guy did ask to look into our attic this morning but I told him No as I could do it myself. I did. No sign of rat or any other kind of droppings nor anything else up there than what I have put up there over the last 20 years or so.


They were doing the lawn spraying.
