something moving under upstairs floorboards

More of a word.

For the last two weeks we have heard (4 times) movement in the ceiling/floor board space. It is def not mice, the noise is too heavy for mice, there is no poo and it doesn't smell. We got the boards up at the weekend, put traps down, had a good look and there are no signs.

This morning I'm with the kids in the lounge and we all heard it, running and flapping sounds. Could it be a bird? How on earth could it have got between the floorboards?

I've contacted the council, pest control won't do anything if it's not visible.

surely you must know someone who has Jack Russell? Put it out on your local media, Poison is a horrible way,

It could be worse. Growing up our entire line of terrace houses was infested by tarantulas. We had to move out while the council got people in.

This thread is over a year old. I'm sure the OP has resolved the issue by now.

Could it be a leaky pipe?

Is this a mouse/ rat sound? In lounge last night, both me and my husband heard ( don't laugh) what sounded like three loud tapping noises followed by a sort of a sucking noise! Please dont want it to be rodents. ..no droppings or any sign of anything else
