Default Ticking sound when heat turned on

Noticed a slight ticking sound right where the cabin air filter is. Does not make any noise when fans are off but even at the lowest setting it makes a tick. Sounds ridiculous but my truck had been sitting for a week and a critter tried to make a nest not sure if that would have to do with it. Sounds like a card being hit my a fan. Thanks

Pull your blower motor and clean it out. Something has found its way in there.
