Comment on Called Bugout for a bug inpection, and the guy said i have mice in my attic. Told me this is a mouse pee stain. Is that right?

  Fun fact, cats aren’t actually very effective at killing all the rodents. They’ve done studies and basically the cats just make them really skiddish and they hide so you never see them. They kill one here or there but the real benefit is getting them out of sight.

    You never met my cat. She was the Terror of Rodents. Like Roman conquerers of old, she used to line up decapitated rats on the welcome mat as her Triumph. Stepping on a whole family of five dead rats while leaving for work is a good start to the day.

  That kitty litter solution wouldn’t work for mice with toxoplasmosis, plus cat pee doesn’t smell particularly nice…

  I agree there would be droppings if there are mice.
