Default nocturnal animals on roof/attic

Hello,
Now that it's getting a bit colder at night (georgia), we are hearing a
lot
of noises coming from the roof and sometimes in the attic.

Last year, we had the same problem, but when looking at the attic
there were no feces.

We haven't seen what rodent(s) it might be, but it causes heavy
thumping noises and some scratching.

This is a 2-story house next to a wooded lot.

It is becoming impossible to sleep at night. The noises start anytime
between 2 am and
6 am.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for any ideas.

Find out where they're getting in.

Close it off.

It's a good idea to make sure the critters have left before sealing their
hole. :-)

Just a guess of course but I'd say either racoons or squirrels. I
speak from experience regarding the squirrels as that's what we had in
our attic years ago. You better get them out because if they get into
your living space, they will make a mess of your home.
