Saw a whole attic full of bird nests behind a drop ceiling in Lynnwood
Got called out to a house in Lynnwood last Tuesday, homeowner said their cable kept dropping signal. Went up in the attic to trace the line, and the previous installer had just shoved the coax behind the insulation and left a huge gap in the drop ceiling tile. Behind that tile were like 6 bird nests, old ones, but still. Droppings everywhere, chewed on the line in two spots. Took me about 3 hours to re-run the whole thing and seal up the entry point with some mesh. I get that attics are hot and nobody wants to be up there long, but leaving a hole that big is asking for critters to find it. Anyone else run into animal damage from sloppy ceiling work, or am I just lucky enough to keep finding it?
