Janjo Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Recently whilst clearing a lof, I found some loose floor boards. On lifting them I discovered that underneath were corn stalks/heads, onions, and walnuts. None looked recently placed there, but has anyone an idea why they would have been put there in the first place and by whom (or even what)?

Nick Trollope Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 We have a similar "issue".Mice (or similar), is my guess (or perhaps large rodents, such as edible doormice?). They don't seem to be around anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best advice is to nip the problem in the bud, block any holes and remove anything edible / organic from the area, also set a trap or lay poison.. I'm normally quite "Wildlife Friendly/Tolerant" but that was truly disgusting !! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
