OLDYELLOW Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 If it aint one vermin it's another sorry to hear this guys , certainly worth meshing vents and stuff over to ensure our lofts are vermin proof even traps are a vulnerable place and worth putting door on , hope they get over this and continue .
