I woke up at night as well as heard a scratching sound under our house, but for a hour I thought it was some kind of evil otherworldly being that was coming to reap our soul.
I kneel in bed terrified for a hour or multiple, but then our thinking brain woke up a little more as well as I recognized the sound as coming from an critter.
Maybe many critters. This should have let me rest self-explanatory but the more I listened the more it sounded love this scratching noise was coming from our ductwork. In other words, it sounded love critters were in our ductwork system. In the afternoon I called up our Heating plus A/C corporation. The workers came out that night as well as they crawled under our house. That is when I found out that our ductwork was in awful shape. They said that there were many holes in the ductwork as well as that a family of raccoons were living under our house. I had to call an exterminator to come as well as relocate the raccoons before work on the ductwork could begin. The exterminators also put up a lot of meshing so that critters could not get back under our house. Then I had the Heating plus A/C workers substitute our entire ductwork system. They used aluminum ductwork this time. My apartment used to have plastic ductwork. I am hoping that if critters do make their way back under the apartment then the aluminum ductwork proves to be more of a challenge. I don’t want raccoons in our ductwork again. I also don’t want to wake up in terror love that again.
