- They may be starving. Sometimes the draw of easily accessible food is enough to entice a very hungry rodent even if the sound is uncomfortable.
- They have a nest of babies. If the rodent left them in a protected area, they will still venture in to keep them safe.
- They are deaf. It is possible they simply cannot hear the ultrasonic noise.
