Something In My Roof At Night

Quite a few times within the past year i have heard something scamper across my roof.

Something in my roof at night.

My name is eloise and i have a noise which occurs either in my wall cavity around my window frame or in the roof space. Practically every night there would be raccoons and the odd deer walking around on my roof for whatever reason. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. If you can catch the animal then placing a large sturdy box or a strong washing basket can help you to catch them and then putting a blanket over the box can help to calm the animal.

This would be fine except i had a skylight. It is a brick house with a timber frame. It was right by my bedroom wall. There s something living in my roof.

David i had a new roof put on last fall and just a few weeks ago i heard something on my roof tri level home and i m hearing noise in my attic at night. Any number of wild animals can be living in your roof space and this could include. If it is something blowing in the wind or something loose on the building itself see if you can confirm this visually. If raccoons were getting on to the roof from the surrounding trees make sure that the branches are trimmed back so it isn t possible to jump on to.

If so chances are you are playing host to unwanted guests. It s advisable that you do a visual examination of the exterior and roof of the building keeping an out for anything that appears loose or out of place. One night i was reading a book i felt a little uneasy and decided to look up. Do you live in melbourne and suspect that there s something living in your roof.

If there is an injured animal on the roof or it falls from the roof and is injured one of the most important things is not to put yourself in harm s way. There was a raccoon staring at me it creeped me the f k out. So it s 3 am and you find yourself sitting bolt upright in bed thinking. They can cause all sorts of damage and make noise all through the night.

It could be cats or maybe a raccoon or squirrel since there are trees close to my house but it s pretty noisy. I sometimes run outside to check but nothings ever there. The noise occurs between midnight and 5 am for about 20 minutes each time and a couple of times each night.
