Fishchick and I have been chasing the odd large black ant through the house for about a week now....not alot of them but they have been 1 or 2 in various parts of the house....they are crawling all over the place outside and on the house but I am guessing they are just getting in a small crack or coming in on folks shoes or what ever! My biggest concern is a spot on top of my foundation inside the basement above the bulkhead door on the sill.......last week I found a mound of scattered blown in insulation....I was sure it was not there before.....found no ants present in the location so figured maybe it just dropped there through the crack in the floor above so I cleaned it up! Went down there a few minutes ago and found another pile in the same spot? Too large a pile I think for ants to make...I am thinking maybe a mouse? We have 2 cats and if they see the mouse they will kill it but what do some of you folks think??? A mouse or not? I have seen no droppings or signs of a mouse other than the disturbed blown in insulation which has been found in the same spot 2 times. Maybe a mouse up in the wall making some room for a home? Or perhaps it has a littler? Any input would be great.....should I put out some traps/poison?
