And wouldn't you know -- around Halloween time!
This is a kind of croaking, grunting, or grumbling sound coming from from a fairly specific place in the wall of an upstairs room in an older two-story wood frame house.
I've pretty much eliminated wind, passing traffic, and other external sources. It's intermittent, not regular timing, and often absent for several hours at a time.
I think insects would be continuous, so if it's alive, I would guess a squirrel or a mouse. We've had mice, but they usually sound like they're busy scurrying about, not hanging out and grunting.
It sounds like a metal ornament or gutter drain rubbing against the house in the wind -- however, as I've said, I'm almost certain it isn't external to the house.
d-CON pellets have worked with mice before, so I've placed them in the attic.
Any idea what would cause this type of noise? Thanks!
