I get this every year about this time Slim. All the little critters seek refuge under my floorboards and unsportingly some of them go and die giving off a foul stench for about a week or so if not retrieved.
I remember one year I watched a stoat jump onto my window sill and disappear under the house, the next thing I heard was an almighty tear up under the floorboards as it despatched everything under there.
