How to tell if someone is living in your attic.

Rarely will you actually see the animals in the attic. Just don t call from your own phone or from your house because they may be tapping your phone calls. Sure you may realize that there is some weirdo living in your literal attic but you may also find that you ve got some univited guests in the attic of your mind or the spiritual. If you have experience like me you will actually know right away by the odor in the attic.

Of course you can also watch your house outside especially if you know the entry hole and time of activity and catch the animal in the act. You may find that there is some stuff in there that shouldn t be there that you should get out of there. Tell them you smell smoke or gas in your attic or call pest control say you have a beehive or snake up there. Call the fire dept.

If nobody replies ask again in a more general way to let the intruder know that you know they are there. Call the police and say you suspect some one may be living in your attic or house. If you know two large men then tell them your suspicions and ask for their help have them yell into the attic that they are giving the occupant a few minutes to come out or that they will come in. If someone is there come out now.

Stop calling the cops. You probably don t spend much time in your attic other than to pop in occasionally and access seasonal items or store nostalgic stuff. Hold it up to the alarm. If it makes you uncomfortable just go up there and.

Find a smoke alarm near the attic entrance. I dont think someone is living in your attic but however you may have a spirtitual being in your attic dont get upset this is pretty damn cool. But some people never go up to their attic in the first place which isn t surprising. Each animal has a trademark scent.

Have a cellphone ready to contact the police and perhaps some pepper spray to avoid a physical altercation. At least someone will be able to get in check it thoroughly. Sit in your house be quiet and listen to what s going on. Also if you can add locks to the vent s screw things that shouldn t be opened often shut.

Attics are usually dark dusty cramped and the site of too many horror film incidents. If you think you hear someone you know like a friend or family member call their name. Light a match then put it out.
