Home Invasion!
Okay, this is NOT funny!

Somehow a creature (!!!) has found it's way into the space between the upstairs floor and the downstairs ceiling!  It sounds HUGE!!!  It's making these gawdawful scratching noises like it's trying to dig through and attack!!

I have deduced that it's a most likely squirrel, albeit an enormous one!  With claws!  (And possibly a drug habit...)  My reasoning for the squirrel theory?  Well, I have been observing the spring antics of my local squirrel hoard, and they've been doing some rather lewd things to each other of late.  Don't get me wrong here, I'm not a pervie squirrel-sex peeper or anything!  They just seem to be doing it wherever I happen to be looking!  I can't really take the blame for that, now can I?

Now, it seems, that nature is taking it's course in my ceiling!!!  Cripes!!

Ordinarily, I'd be fine with the whole have-your-babies-and-begone scenario, but for the scratching that's going on!!  It's trying to DIG it's way into my HOUSE!!!  I'm NOT happy with this notion!  Not one bit!! 

I thought that I might be able to terrify it into leaving.  I led a brutal assault on the ceiling complete with thumping and screaming...I'm pretty sure I heard giggling...ARGH!  Phase II of my attack strategy includes ripping up the floor in the dining room and dropping in some explosives.  No need to point out the error in this plan...I'm way ahead of you...and I don't care!  I'll rebuild!  I'll move! 

This is unacceptable!!

I'm going to go now and put a pot on my head and arm myself with the broom...just in case....

A few years ago I come home from work. My better half says somethings in the wall in the bathroom...scratching noises...I go investigate..a flying squirrel is gnawing on the wall where the pipes from the toilet lead...the little twerp busted out...I caught him..the thanks i got was the squirrel pooping on my hand.I'll have to post a picture of him..he sure was cute...happy hunting:)

Thanks, Pita, but I hope it doesn't come to that...I'm seriously thinking about uprooting the dining room floor...I'm having the carpet replaced next week anyway.

Don't poison them! I called pest control about squirrel porn in my attic and in French they tried to explain what would happen to the little buggers when they finished, but I couldn't understand the vocabulary. In the summer, when I went up looking for our suitcases, I understood...dead squirrels, four of them. The poison apparently dried up their blood and so, I had squirrel fossils up there! When I moved to the US, I unwrapped a beautiful old jar and found one Belgian squirrel at the bottom! Gross and yuck, but I just couldn't take the nightly noise and destruction any longer! Do what ya gotta do!!

I had varmits in my walls too. I hear them for a few weeks then nothing...So not sure if they just get tried of trying to get in and die or crawl bad out...And maybe getting the new carpet and all the noise, maybe they will leave on their own.....
Good luck whatever you do....
