Something alive in my bedroom wall!

[equalizr]

Well the cat first noticed last night, heard this scratching in the bedroom/hallway wall. I thought it was her scratching at the wall or the wires on the wall but then i heard it too! At first it sounded like a mouse but then after i was thinking, mice would go back out the way they came if they get stuck. This sound is stuck between 2 2x4's and sounds like its jumping. There is no scraping sound (like a mouse would make) so im thinking its a grasshopper? Ive had 2 others in my basement before but never in the wall. Its still there now but its jumping less and less (prob dying) and my cat is now living beside that wall

Im sure hoping its a grasshopper, no other insect resembles the sounds they would make

Shouldn't this be in the "Home & Garden" forum??

probably mice..... I had some in the attic a few years ago and they would travel up and down between the walls..... got some rat poison and later a cat and solved the problem

That's probably what your dad told you, not to blow his cover.

Just tear the wall apart, then you don't have to speculate anymore.

Well, it makes sense, there was some blowing..... lost a load somewhere, and then his mom needed to clean it up...

Possibly baby raccoon or squirrel. I've heard stories like that from our raccoon guy a few years back. Mom dropped her baby, went down to go and help but both couldn't get back up and were stuck there until several months later when an aweful smell came from the wall, and after tearing up the wall they found rotting racoons there ... a mom and her baby .... so sad ...

June Bugs are the wost thing to inhabity the EARTH! I use to have a HUGE June bug problem back when I lived in a house in Scarborough. We had use the fireplace to keep them from coming through the chimney. I remember them flying through the lower floor, and I used hairspray and a lighter to kill them. It felt good, but it was definitely grosse. I say u should call pest control and find out what it is before it becomes a major problem. Anyways.. enough of my rant...
