I just found out that my neighbor that I share a wall with is moving out because of “the mouse issue.” This is the first I’ve heard about it. I’m pretty sure I don’t have mice. I haven’t found any chewed food packaging or what looks like mouse droppings. I do have a cat but I’m not confident he would know how to kill a mouse. I’ve never seen him chase anything on the floor but I know he will chase flying insects. I also haven’t been presented with any “presents.” Could he really be keeping the mice from my apartment by just his scent?
Cats get rid of mice just by existing. We had a mouse problem when we moved in. The cats never once killed a mouse. We no longer have mice (in the house). Mice are always outside so maybe your neighbor just doesn’t like that?
