The roof is 2 years old, could a squirrel have urinated or died in the attic? How do I get rid of the spot cleaning it isnt enough.

    If you don't have a leak in the roof and there's no critters in the attic, then prime the spot with KILZ and repaint the ceiling.

    I would definitely make sure there is not a roof leak. The stain could be from anything, including mold or mildew. If the ceiling is flat, definitely use the Kilz products. If it is popcorn, you've got a bigger problem and may have to hire a handyman who is proficient at working with popcorn ceilings.

    It sounds like it might be mold from a drip- you can use vinegar or bleach to kil it first! good luck!
