Why do wood wardrobes randomly make crackling noises?
In: 33
While wood can definitely make noise due to thermal expansion, it’s also possible you have an infestation of wood worms or something similar. The sound of wood worms is generally described as soft scratching, but it depends on the type of woodborne insects that are common where you live.
You should check the wardrobe for small openings. If there are small openings it can be a sign of an infestation.
An infestation can spread rapidly between wooden furniture and even to the structure of your house if it has wooden beams.
