Hi folks, this one has me stumped.
Every morning, from about sunrise, there's an irregular knocking noise in my loft. There's also sometimes a scraping noise, as if the tiles are being dragged against one another.
The knocking noise is quite deep, as if someone was hitting a rafter with a light hammer. In other words, definitely a knocking rather than a slight tapping.
I assume this is some kind of animal, but I can't work out what. There are no flapping or cheeping sounds that you might get with birds; no scratching or scampering sounds that you'd get with mice or rats.
I had a quick look up there with a torch the other day and couldn't see anything.
Any clues?
