Final Thoughts: Don’t Ignore the Signs
That wad of shredded insulation behind the window blinds looked harmless at first — just an odd mess after a long trip. But it was really the tip of a much bigger problem waiting quietly behind the drywall.
Catching it early saved us hundreds (possibly thousands) in repairs.
It also spared us from what could’ve become a full-blown infestation.
If you ever spot something similar — debris, unexplained dust piles, black pellets near the walls, or gaps around windows — take it seriously.
With mice, hesitation is all the time they need.
My advice?
Jump on it fast, before they truly move in.
Because trust me… coming home from vacation is supposed to be relaxing — not the beginning of a battle inside your walls.
