Ok I recently exchanged houses with another lady who left the house in a total state
In the mornings I can hear scratching above my bedroom and a squaking noise. On my bedroom ceiling little holes are appearing more and more.
After watching programs where people call the council to sort problems there has been loads about rats being able to get into attics and I have convinced myself either rats or birds are in the attic.
Birds I could deal with but I'm feeling ill thinking the lady beside me did leave things in such a state that rats could have been possible.
I now can't sleep at night thinking a rat is going to drop on my head through one of these holes and I have a phobia of rats.
I'm too scared to look in the loft as I would have a heart attack if something jumped out, plus in very big so can't really get through the loft hole.
Son is 8 and not scared of creatures and he wants to look in the loft ( obv I wouldn't let him walk about up there) but I feel it should really be me looking.
What would other people do as it's just me and my son?
