About a year ago we discovered rats were living under our decking..
It totally freaked me out. We had the decking ripped up and replaced with a patio and I had pest controlers come to inspect the house and loft to make sure they didn't get in and no signs of anything else.
The thing is its made me totally freak out. I won't open the windows more than half a centimeter in case something gets in and there is no way I'm having the back door open more than long enough to get in and out.
I don't want to sit in our garden either :(
We have had horrible luck with a mouse invasion in a precious house and squirrels getting into the loft last year.
I swear I'm not a dirty housekeeper we have just had some rotten London luck.
I feel like a paranoid prisoner :( am I the only one left feeling like this after a rodent incident?!
