  1. Victorian detached house with a footprint of about 11m x 8m. Roof constructed with three king post trusses. Around 125mm rockwool insulation laid maybe 30 years ago? Want to retain as a cold roof, but just lay some boarding to provide storage space. Boards will sit on top of the kink post lower chords, about 200mm higher than the ceiling, so that all works OK. BUT here's the thing: there is a huge quantity of mouse shit on top of the existing insulation and I mean huge. It is everywhere - truly gross. So it just doesn't seem right to ignore this issue, and lock the problem in So am sorely tempted to start again - remove all the shitty (sic) old insulation and relay new. But what would others do?
  2. We heard some 'funny' noises this morning in the attic. No smell of mice and no droppings but odd little patches of broken foam, nibbled? Anyone experience of mice living in spray foam or using it for nest building? Thanks Paul
  3. The stainless steel wire wool rodent barrier located behind the base of my larch cladding, turned out not to be stainless at all and has started to rust and fall out. Can anyone suggest a supplier of 1” wide stainless steel wire wool, so that I can replace the rotten stuff?
