    How to prevent Animals out from passing cable to house roof?
    It was painful for the last two days heavy wind and raining. Especially after we notice we have water dip from the ceiling! By spending $300 to hire a professional to fix this matter!
    WE were told that was because of some animals wanted to move in to our attic.
    He had found 8 spots of damage lose all cover shingles until wood protect. (Luckily We have moved to a 70 yrs old house. So roofing setup was not in 4x8 plywood but roads up by lots of 8 inch wide wood boards)
    In here I guess the only way to bring them visit our roof was the cable line or phone line that lane horizontal to the closer the roof. Please advise us how due with this, for we couldn’t afford to have these visitors anymore.

    IF I understand your question (the translation makes it hard to grasp), what should help is a "squirrel-guard" around the lines coming into the house. It consists of a cone that fastens around the lines some distance out from the building to prevent animals from running along the lines. Good luck.
