This sound has been coming from our ceiling for the past week or so (it's a flat so in between floors, though we can't find an opening) and is mostly chirping in the wee hours, starting anything from 7pm to 9pm continuing up until around 7am.
A bird app identified it as a great tit, but after the increased intensity & frequency and the lack of visible entry points we're wondering if it could be a cricket.
Also....any suggestions of what to do? It's relentless!
Faster louder higher pitched chirping.m4a

Does one of your neighbours keep reptiles? Sounds like one of their feeder crickets has escaped.
As for what to do … eventually it will croak. If you know where it is you might be able to catch it. They sure can be annoying but a lone insect won’t trouble you for too long.
