Something In My Roof At Night

There was a raccoon staring at me it creeped me the f k out.

Something in my roof at night.

Quite a few times within the past year i have heard something scamper across my roof. 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. 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. This would be fine except i had a skylight.

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. It was right by my bedroom wall. Along with sealing any holes in the roof that were allowing the raccoons on to the attic it is also important that you check the tiles on the roof haven t been damaged or loosened by the animals. I sometimes run outside to check but nothings ever there.

If so chances are you are playing host to unwanted guests. 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. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. Do you live in melbourne and suspect that there s something living in your roof.

Practically every night there would be raccoons and the odd deer walking around on my roof for whatever reason. I swear i just heard something in the roof you re probably not crazy because hearing noises in the roof at night is a very common problem all over the world but particularly right here in australia. There s something living in my roof. It could be cats or maybe a raccoon or squirrel since there are trees close to my house but it s pretty noisy.

If it is something blowing in the wind or something loose on the building itself see if you can confirm this visually. They can cause all sorts of damage and make noise all through the night. The noise occurs between midnight and 5 am for about 20 minutes each time and a couple of times each night. So it s 3 am and you find yourself sitting bolt upright in bed thinking.

Any number of wild animals can be living in your roof space and this could include. I went downstairs and looked out the front window and sure enough was a raccoon bending over the gutter. 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.
