If your dryer isn't running there shouldn't be any air flow in the duct. And exhausts often aren't on the roof. Squirrels find all kinds of ways to get inside. Birds are also known to slip into them and make nests.
It was just an idea. Maybe it's a ghost. Hell, I don't know...just trying to throw some ideas out there.
Nothing got under the flap. I was worried for nothing. It is simply a noise it makes during and slightly after use. It has stopped now. It was a air flow and temperature difference between inside and outside Once the tube and flap cooled down it stopped. It had nothing to do with a clog or function of the unit.
