   Question    posted to Exterminators on 12/20/08 03:06 PM, Katonah, NY 10536
We've been hearing what sounds like an animal inside the wall behind the oven for about a week. It's a loud, scrabbling sound and comes and goes. We usually hear it at night and it stops when it hears us walking nearby. It sounds like it must be bigger than a mouse - maybe a squirrel building a nest. How do we get rid of it?

Start by inspecting the outside of your home.  Look for possible entrances that a mouse, rat, squirrel or bird may use to get in.  Start by looking near where the sound is and expand to the rest of the home.  It may take some time to look but the results may be worth it.  If an opening is found you can, if possible, set up “have a heart traps”.
 
If it is possibly mice, or rats, our trained pest control technicians
 can also place traps and bait throughout the home and there is always the option of tracking powder into the wall. Becoming a contract customer give you access to having our technicians come back and re-inspect and retreat if necessary until the problem is under control.
 Any openings found should be sealed when the pest problem has been treated and solved.
We are one of the top 50 pest control companies in the United States, and we offer free home inspections for all of these needs.
