My fuzz pedal seems to be microphonic

I have a Germanium 4 Big Muff, which has an overdrive side, and a distortion side. Whenever either (or both) sides are turned on, and I tap my foot on the pedal, I can hear it through the amp. This isn't too bad if just the overdrive is turned on, but if the distortion side is turned on, it results in nonstop feedback. This doesn't happen with any of my other pedals. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
