So this was a weird one! It had a cap, no screen. Full liner! I have never seen them climb the inside of a liner. Once seeing it, I wanted to trap inside the liner. But the live trap was too big diagonally. We ended up attaching a round body grip to a piece of hardware cloth that could be attached up top. It’s an odd one, I’m happy I got to play tech on it. I took pics as it’s somewhat related to what we could see here.

The customer already found a sweep to make sure the stove and liner are cleared after we’re done. I’m sure the sweep will put a new cap on too.
