What would movement around me on the bed be in the dark at night?

Asked by nannafay (3points) June 3rd, 2013

I lie very still when I go to bed and most nights I feel the movement like pitta patta of little feet walking around me .one night I asked them to go as I wanted to sleep and instantly it stopped. It came back a couple of nights later. This has been happening now for about 3 months. I have even stopped breathing so my body didn’t move and the little feet kept on moving over the bed very close to me. My doctor has checked my legs for reasons but said I was dreaming and laughed it off. I have never been asleep and it woke me ,it is always happened as I lay there after saying my prayers.

Do you have pets? Little kids? Rats?

I would guess mice. Sprinkle a little bird food and see if it’s there in the morning. If the food is disturbed set out some Victor mouse traps.

In my house it would be the cat. However, I’d know it was him because he talks a lot and insists on getting under the quilt. In your house, if you have no cat, rodents. You could use traps or get a cat. That won’t solve the problem but it will change it.

This question might be too obvious, but have you tried turning on your bedside lamp as soon as you feel the “little feet” movement?

One night I felt something very small crawling around on top of the bed near my legs, almost indiscernible, it was a little mouse.

My guess is mice, too.
