For the first time in my life i have mice. Mice scratching and chewing in the walls can sound as if the source of the noise should be bigger than a raccoon rummaging around in there. And they are so persistent it drives homeowners batty. I had thought that i dreamed the scratching and skittering sounds i heard coming from the walls and ceiling but then i eventually found the quarter.
