I live in the CO Rockies at 8K ft, a rather rural snowbird park, in a modular/park model home, essentially a perm mobile home, if you will. I have alum flashing around the underside.
At night I wake to hear this tick,tick,tick. A sound like someone randomly tapping on a hard table top with the end of a pen/pencil. Other times, it's louder, a clicking sound like a kid moving domininos around the table and clacking them one against another, again a random pattern. I only hear this at night, and only occassionally, but more and more, lately. It's not in the house, though it sounds like it is. That's why I think it's under the house. When I get up and make some noise, the sound stops. I'm sure it's some sorta nocturnal animal taking up residence under the house, but what? Any ideas? I've only seen bunny rabbits and chipmonks around the house during the day. Any ideas how to determine what it is and be rid of it? Traps, etc? I got no night cameras.
We once had an infestation of field mice, but they made no noise, being quiet as a ...well.... mouse! ;)
