    Probably a starling has got into your attic from under your roof. Can cause awful noise for a while. Could ye not go up and investigate? Maybe catch it and let it out.

    Otherwise house noises. Heat, cold etc causing wood in the roof to cause bit of noise.

    Either that or you've got ghosts of course. Good thing. Record them and you would make more money than a Panama offshore account.

    We had tapping in our ceilings and walls - pipes popped off their clips, heating went on and tap, tap. Some of lovely folk in Plumbing suggested what the problem was - took the plasterboard off where the noises were, went OTT with extra clips to avoid it happening again, and we are 'all good' now.

    Borrow a cat and fire it up into the attic for a couple of days.

    Do you mean set it on fire in the attic or leave it it up there for a couple of days?

    As much as I don't like the sly little b@stards, I don't think I could bring myself to actually burn one!:pac:

    Nah just put it in the attic with a bowl of water and give it 2 days up there. Let it leave its scent up there too to put other critters off.
