Hi I have noticed a strange noise in my bedroom recently. Its like a very faint tapping noise - its fairly random and very quiet.
I have ruled out any noises coming from my PC or anything else in my room OR anything coming from surrounding rooms. I can't see it being from otuside as the sound doesn't seem to be coming from near the window and its happening really late like 5am when its pretty much dead around here.
It seems to be coming from the attic and someone suggested Deathwatch Beetles!!
Anyone had any experience of this? What is the noise ment to be like?
I stuck my head into the attic - it has that insulation stuff all over it - I coudlnt ehar anything but the problem is that its really cold up there and you can sort of hear the outside as well so I would think the noise I can hearin my room would not be audible from sticking my head in.
Any ideas on what I can do? Are there any tools I can buy on the cheap that can detect sound? i.e the clsoer I move it the brighter an LED light will get or something - bearing in mind the nosie is VERY faint!
If not then how I DIY a way of gettin rid of any possible infestation? I don;t get where these things would randoly come from - I am in Hampshire and reading onlien suggests they do pop up in the SOuth!
Thanks
