Skunks have a distinct stripe running the length of their back. Like raccoons, skunks feed off of garbage and left over food scraps. It is important to avoid direct contact with skunks as they may release a defensive spray. 

  Squirrels are a type of rodent with a bushy tail. They can enter into the attic from a crack or hole in the roof. Squirrels can cause serious damage to the house if left untreated. 

 Termites feed on wood which they use to create a colony. They can potentially cause a lot of damage if infestation is not treated early.
