| | | Re: Mice pooing in my pond Not bat droppings by any remote chance as they fly over your pond feeding on insects. They do look mouse droppings but are of a different consistency.
Bats won't be responsible for chewing your bulbs unless they're garlic bulbs. I cannot imagine how mice droppings can get into water easily unless they are blown there. |

| | | Re: Mice pooing in my pond Put up a little tiny tiny sign in Mouselish saying that the charge for pooing in your pond is one pee per poo. That'll stop 'em.
