I have a critter in my ceiling, any creative Ideas?
Yesterday we uncovered our Momentum 395, We found little pcs of grey foam (ductwork interior) all over. My wife walked in the master BR and heard something above. As of right now I have all the diffusers pulled off and some stickey traps because of limited space in the ductwork. I also made a bucket trap with peanut butter and raised it up on the rear garage bed. Nothing so far. Any ideas would help the ceiling ductwork is pretty extensive 12 diffusers. I actually had a bucket trap in the unit all winter and nothing was in it. Thanks

Just a word of caution with the sticky glue traps... mice often only get partially stuck on them and then drag them somewhere else. That "somewhere else" is were they'll get fully stuck on it and die... most likely someplace you can't reach where they'll rot and stink up your ductwork. Tie a long string to each trap and tie the string to something below the ceiling. You're going to want to use a scope camera and do a thorough check of the ducts to see where they are chewed up... or you'll be blowing your AC into the ceiling cavity.

Try pulling the trim rings on the skylights. You should be able to place conventional traps that way. Tie a string to them too so the don't walk off. Also set traps in the belly if you can and seal up any holes like where he spare tire lift cable is and along the coroplast (belly fabric).
