Be sure to follow up with an electrical inspection. Squirrels LOVE the Romex cable in attics.

Seven Hills Electrical recently replaced two spans I discovered chewed below some insulation. I had a squirrel up there in that part of the attic a few years ago and it appears he was well-fed. Fortunately, he stuck to the outer insulation so I avoided a fire, but opted to have the wires replaced.

you aren't kidding. Some of my saddest life moments have been sitting in the midst of asbestos insulation repairing squirrel chewed wires.
