No, the OTHER kind of rat pack
This afternoon, there was a noise as of heavy construction coming from the ceiling in my kitchen. I went upstairs to the bedroom and checked the closet that’s in that same corner.
I was greeted by a scattering of ratsh*t.
Nice.
My cursory googling indicates that they’re probably roof rats. They probably found their way into my roof through an opening not much bigger than a nickel. They probably like my roof because they can run from my roof to my neighbor’s roof to an adjacent apple tree in my neighbor’s yard, and roof rats like fruit. Roof rats also to carry and transmit diseases by all kinds of exciting methods including aerosolized matter from feces and urine.
Here’s hoping I don’t get hanta virus, and that my landlords are responsive to this problem.
