Something is burrowing in my shed

wicklowtown

Hi, Im hoping someone can help me. I went to my 7 x 6 foot metal shed that has a wooden floor for the first time this year, I couldnt get the sliding doors to open and as the sheds in a shaded area of the garden i couldnt see what what preventing the doors from opening so I went and got a torch. When i shined it inside the shed most of the wooden floor seems to have rotted away. On top of the floor (or what was the floor) in different areas of the shed are big mounds of earth and im just wondering if anyone would have any ideas of what kind of animal is obviously living under the floor of my shed. Most of the floor is covered in earth but the actual mounds are around 1- 1.5 feet in diameter. To be honest im a bit scared to check it out as im a middle aged lady and though im not scared of many animals its the fact i dont know what this animal might be and thats whats worrying me. I should also add i have 6 small dogs and 3 cats who use my garden so i would have thought any animal would avoid taking up residence in my garden even if it is inside my shed. My dogs are house dogs but in good weather my cats often stay out at night. Any help would be appreciated as im extremely nervous to investigate these mounds of earth when i have no clue what i might be dealing with. Thanks
P.S I originally put this up in the interior design section so moving it here as i dont know what to do. Thanks again

I'm with you on this. Genuinely worried for the OP at this stage. Should we go in after them???

Yes but first let’s split up. They always “split up” in the Scooby Doo cartoons.:P

If Scooby Doo gets involved it has to be the janitor thats burrowing in the shed.

I woke at 4am to go to the loo and found myself wondering about this. Op you had such potential here, you can still clinch it! It's either something really bad or uneventful enough.

Tragic! That's your life now destroyed along with ops... Who knows how many others have succumbed to the demon burrower???

WHERE WILL IT END???

Should we report her as missing to the police.

Me "some one on the Internet might have been taken under ground by a monster in her shed.

TomOnBoard

Nah, I reckon the answer is much simpler!

OP met up with "Jason from Parks & wildlife" and there's now a whole lot of burrowing going on up in North Wickla... They're writing a buk about it I hear. Gonna be called "Fifty Sheds of Bray"....

:D:pac::pac::eek::eek:

Are them things back again? You need to set a trap with bacon.

gozunda

It's now two weeks approx. since the OP has been heard from....

Boards.ie task force and rescue squad has been activated and about to be deployed in the vicinity of the shed

The latest reports indicate that holes in the shed are now being looked into...

Something is burrowing in my shed
It doesn’t sleep nor rest its head
Something is burrowing in my shed
It turns the inside, crimson red.
Something was burrowing in my shed
It ceases suddenly... is it dead?
Something was burrowing in my shed.
Did, I say shed? I meant my head.

Something is burrowing in my shed
Think I'll go and start a thread
Then I'll go and bake some bread
While I do in poor Crusty's head.

While I'm tucked up in my bed
Posters thinking of what I said
Now I'm losing my street cred
All because of a rat called Fred.

Or a fox who is well fed
Or a bat, filled with dread
Something evil, easily lead
Fill us in, the posters said.

No such luck, op's gone and fled
What's this boll*x you've just read
Better off watching Father Ted
That's it done from A to Zed.
