There is nothing worse than sitting in the house and not being able to work out where a constant beeping noise is coming from.<\/p>\n

It really gets on your nerves and pretty soon, it'll drive you up the wall.<\/p>\n

Now imagine having to go through this every day for a year. This is what happened to Paul and Jeanette Henry, who ended up ripping their house apart in an effort to get to the bottom of the noise.<\/p>\n

As well as calling in an electrician to test the cables, they paid a builder to make a series of holes in the house in the hope they would find the source.<\/p>\n

Eventually, Mr Henry – who admits he was at his wits end – found a smoke alarm with a ten-year old battery in it.<\/p>\n

"To think we have put up with this for a year when it has been there all along," said Mrs Henry. "At least it has stopped at last."<\/p>\n
