Ok maybe not, but we were doing some cleaning yesterday on our Rockwood 8280ws and herd footsteps in the roof. Probably a mouse but can't find anywhere he might have got in from, does anyone have any advice on how to go about evicting this little squatter before he takes over the whole place?

Could have been a squirrel or a bird. If you hear something inside, then I would worry about getting him out!

Birds on the roof can make quite a loud noise.

A group of mice aren't called a herd, they are known as a horde, a nest, a trip, or my favorite, a mischief.

Take the trim down around the fans and set traps in the ceiling gap. I had squirrel's in mine.

Easy - all it takes is a sense of humor.
