Im in the North side of the OKC area.

What's up there? Raccoon, rats, squirrels? Keep in mind you might have an insurance claim depending on what it is. It can get nasty quick

What do you think it is?

Go to Walmart or local feed/hardware store and buy some Tomcat brand rodent bait. They are green, peanut butter-flavored sticks that mice/rats/squirrels can't resist. Place a few in the crawl space. If the critters can get to it, you won't have any more problems.

Note: DO NOT say to anyone in the store you're using it for squirrels! That's illegal as squirrels have a hunting season.

My Dad had squirrels get into his attic once. Sounded like kangaroos.

Apparently they prefer jumping around over walking.

You will also need to cover whatever attic opening they can access.

Raccoon family got into my in-laws' ceiling crawlspace, mama and two kits. They eventually broke through the ceiling drywall into my MIL's home office and really put a wrecking on the place. This was north Edmond, near Oak Tree. Sorry, I don't have a specific exterminator recommendation but wanted to show why it needs to be resolved. They had broke in through a soffit ventilation screen.

Don't get it wet and don't feed it after midnight.

Steven Seagal used to be a pretty good exterminator.

Whatever it is, be quick about it.
Squirrels/mice will eat off all the insulation from the wires in your attic.
I had to do electrical repairs of wires with NO insulation at all. 110 volt LIVE wires, just no insulation.
