It could be any number of animals walking around on your roof.
Sounds like footsteps on my roof.
As if someone was walking on the roof.
In new zealand the other animal that can be a cause of noises in the roof is the possum australian brushtail possum.
It doesn t really come across in the video but the sound was impossible to pin down.
This is a much larger animal than a rat or bird and it usually easy to tell its presence from the much heavier and slower footfalls and they don t gnaw wood like the rodents will.
One evening i heard it and it sounded almost like a tree fell onto my roof.
It s a frost quake.
To describe how it sounded it sounded like large heavy footsteps.
Then i found out that that s what it was.
The noise could be coming from your roof during the hottest days of the summer when the rays of the sun beat down on the shingles.
My birds who usually get spooked by loud odd sounds didn t react.
In the gta they ve been hearing them.
If it s coming from the radiators you may have condensed steam.
I was cleaning leaves on my roof when this weird wave of low level sound started.
When it stopped it never started again.
