Hi

I found some things in my house that look like mice droppings. We had them last year for a few weeks. We thoroughly cleaned the house and laid traps but nothing was caught and they randomly stopped (I also found some on my car and front door) but I just found 3 today, 2 in my babies booster seat and 1 in his rocker. I've checked all the corners and skirting but there is nothing there and nothing has been chewed.

There is a tree outside my house and it only happens around this time of year. Can anyone tell me what they are please??

What are these??

Look like mice dropping to me, personally I’d set a live trap (which doesn’t kill mice) and put chocolate in it and see what happens.

If you catch & release you’ll need to drive the mice a few miles away.

Yes looks like mice droppings to me too. The tapered ends give it away.

If they are no bigger than an uncooked grain of rice, mouse droppings.

If bigger than that, rat droppings....let's hope it's mouse droppings!

Thanks for your replies, I was hoping it was something else! Its smaller than a grain of rice but I've had mice before and there was a LOT of droppings, but there's only 3/4, and how did one end up on my front door?? (On the ledge bit above the window so no space for mouse to crawl onto) we had live traps last year but they didnt catch anything.

Could it possibly be a bug or off a tree?
