Default Strange noise - deathwatch beetles?

Hi
I have noticed a strange noise in my bedroom recently. Its like a very
faint tapping noise - its fairly random and very quiet.

I have ruled out any noises coming from my PC or anything else in my
room OR anything coming from surrounding rooms. I can't see it being
from otuside as the sound doesn't seem to be coming from near the window
and its happening really late like 5am when its pretty much dead around
here.

It seems to be coming from the attic and someone suggested Deathwatch
Beetles!!

We have the same. I left the loft hatch open last night, and while I was
sitting on the bog, a wren flew in, took one look at me and flew out..

Opened a window and its gone for now. Could swear I had it all rodent
proofed to the hilt too..
