Hi All

I wonder if anyone has experience this. A few days ago, I and wife was
watching TV, and we heard something scratching our patio door. It was
about
10 PM at night, and we went to the patio door to have a look, but could
not
see anything. But scratching noise was still keep coming into the house
rather loudly. We were not sure whether it was outside of the house or
inside the house. I went out through the patio door, put the security
lights
on, and looked around, but could not see anything at all.

Next day samething happened exactly same time 10 PM at night, scratch
noise
from the patio door. Went there, and looked around but nothing. This time
I
found out the scratching noise was coming from the floor of the kitchen.
It
sounded like scratching with some sort of paw or claw. I hit the floor
with
a shoes a few times making loud noise, but the scratching noise did not
stop - it went on a few time, and got quietened.

What could this be? Our house is newly built about 2 years ago, and
kitchen
floor is stone tiled. We also used to suffer from a lot of ants coming
into
the kitchen, and crawling around the stone tile floor.

cheers

I heard a scratching noise in my garage the other day, tracked it down to a
pile of junk in a corner, but there was no movement coming from it which I
would have expected given the volume of the scratching. When I gingerly
pulled it apart using a rake I expected a mouse or rat, but instead the
worlds biggest bumble bee zoomed out (after making an incredible buzzing
noise, you could tell it was annoyed :-)! Maybe its that time of year for
nestbuilding and one has found a small hole leading from outside to under
your kitchen floor?
