How To Tell If Someone Is Living In Your Attic

If you have experience like me you will actually know right away by the odor in the attic.

How to tell if someone is living in your attic.

Sit in your house be quiet and listen to what s going on. It ll smoke a lot. Just don t call from your own phone or from your house because they may be tapping your phone calls. You probably don t spend much time in your attic other than to pop in occasionally and access seasonal items or store nostalgic stuff.

If it makes you uncomfortable just go up there and. Hold it up to the alarm. Call the police and say you suspect some one may be living in your attic or house. Call the fire dept.

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. Call out to the person who might be in your house. Light a match then put it out. If someone is there come out now.

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. So on if there is. If nobody replies ask again in a more general way to let the intruder know that you know they are there. Find a smoke alarm near the attic entrance.

Have a cellphone ready to contact the police and perhaps some pepper spray to avoid a physical altercation. Ask in a loud curious tone is someone there. You may find that there is some stuff in there that shouldn t be there that you should get out of there. Rarely will you actually see the animals in the attic.

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. But some people never go up to their attic in the first place which isn t surprising. If you think you hear someone you know like a friend or family member call their name. At least someone will be able to get in check it thoroughly.

Each animal has a trademark scent. Tell them you smell smoke or gas in your attic or call pest control say you have a beehive or snake up there. Attics are usually dark dusty cramped and the site of too many horror film incidents.
