Maybe there was an original whole with something in it and the critter just made it larger.<br /><br />Did you find poo near the whole or around the attic? <br /><br />Short story, my husband moved into a rental home years ago with his first wife. They would hear noises at night.....like something walking in the ceiling. They reported it to the landlord, he/she did nothing. One night, my husband's wife opened the cabinet above the stove to get some spices out for cooking and there was a ticked off raccoon staring her down. She slammed the cabinet door, screamed and my husband contacted the landlord. The landlord arrived, opened the cabinet and got a big ticked off raccoon in his face. In the end, the raccoon was relocated and the whole in the roof was patched along with the whole in the kitchen cabinet. Good luck hunting my friend, and be careful!!!Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-90039860363721068852014-10-21T09:38:40.170-05:002014-10-21T09:38:40.170-05:00Do you think the lack of critters this past week i...Do you think the lack of critters this past week is due to the daily human activity? Just from the photos of the attic I'd say you do not have residents living there. Very neat and tidy. Most critters will tear the place to shreds to make a nice cozy bed. And leave poop everywhere. :)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14626678045896424852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-44217527462683898002014-10-21T06:50:06.166-05:002014-10-21T06:50:06.166-05:00Well, glad to hear that there were no attacks or s...Well, glad to hear that there were no attacks or steps in large piles of poo ;-) Definitely get that hole closed up, though :-)Bee Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04046727605273717050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-36246976903342360152014-10-21T05:36:11.096-05:002014-10-21T05:36:11.096-05:00It might had started out as a small tiny hole and ...It might had started out as a small tiny hole and some critter decided to make it bigger.<br />I suggest you get it closed up ASAP by using a metal plateColleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13106960827480062745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-108905944892587212014-10-20T21:33:32.755-05:002014-10-20T21:33:32.755-05:00I laughed so hard at this post!!

I've heard that leaving a radio playing music loudly will get squirrels and other critters to leave an interior space so you can then block the entry, but I've never tried it myself so don't know how well it works. Might be worth a try? Good luck with your adventures :)Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292701509476856967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-69331417063958618802014-10-20T19:46:46.932-05:002014-10-20T19:46:46.932-05:00Do you think it could be a man made hole that some...Do you think it could be a man made hole that someone put there to have wires going up into the attic?
