My boss did this with a screwdriver in company walls. The TV did, in fact, cover up the holes.
Also stand in a bucket of water. If you get a big shock then you’re close!
This is LPT. I have done this multiple times. Stud finders don’t always work on really old plaster walls.
That’s what I came here to say. Plaster walls don’t care about your beeping stud finder.
That’s where the good old nocking trick comes in. 😉
I hung a TV in an 1800s house and my stud finder worked fine. Definitely plaster and lath.
You can also scan for them with the TV remote. Pan it slowly across the wall while holding down the power button. If you suddenly feel horny, you found a stud.
Just duct tape that shit up yo!
