I've got some critters in the walls/ceiling. I imagine it's squirrels, as
they're making too much noise for mice. I can here them scratching and
rolling objects around at night. I recently had some surgery, so it will
probably be another week before I can drag my butt up into the attic to
check. But we had a new roof put on about a year ago, so I suspect they're
getting in through the new and improved roof vents. Assuming they are
getting in through the roof vents, I was wondering if I could staple some
heavy metal mesh over the inside of the roof vents to keep them out
temporarily? Would this hold up to a Squirrel attack or are they likely to
push the staples out? I will get the roofing company to fix the vents when
it warms up, but I was hoping this might work for now.

All of the vents I have looked at include screening. How do you know
yours do not?
