Hello,

for a few days a marten has been causing trouble in my roof. In a roof valley it managed to bend the metal sheet away (it was probably also poorly installed).

How do I get it out again?

I closed the access, after that there was some peace for a few days. But last night something could be heard again.
Now it probably won't get out anymore.

It is presumably located in the Isover insulation between the gypsum interior cladding and the roof covering.

It is obvious that it is damaging the foil, insulation, and underlay membrane.

Does anyone have an idea what to do about this?

Thank you very much.

Ask the district forester? Or possibly just reopen the access and hope he’s not dead yet. He’ll be glad when he can get away again.

Alternatively: send the dachshund after him

Hello icandoit

you may not be a hunter and are not allowed to do this. But I would get a marten trap, put a chicken wing inside, and when the marten is in the trap, release the animal some distance away.

Found tracks in the snow today. I will try using a live trap. Hopefully, I won’t constantly have the neighbor’s cat in it. Thank you.

I hope it goes quickly, I know it from the neighboring house, there it really raged. Everything related to foil was shredded, the insulation was pulled out and above all it took its captured creatures with it, blackbirds, pigeons, mice, etc... So hurry up with setting the traps.

I once read something about a remedy called GOMAGO.
