Decided on Saturday to have a massive clear out. We've not had one for probably all the time i've been there - 5 years.
SO looked in the old tackroom which is now the rug room to see what rugs out of there we wanted and who for and which to bin. EVERY rug i picked up had had mice living in it, loads of acorns and leaves fell on my feet! I found 2 rugs with massive tears to the inside that were unrepairable god only knows why we put them in there to begin with!!
Loads of bits of bridle , ancient and mouldy, broken headcollars, mice had eaten several pairs of gloves and a few tabbards beyond repair, found some decent travel boots, but i filled up the dumper truck
with all the old rugs (some of which we haven't used for the past 2 years so didn't see why we should keep them for this year), old hats, bits of tack and general JUNK!!!
Feel much better now its all gone and we only have decent rugs etc that we need!
PS I found a fat live mouse and a dead decaying mouse in one of the hay racks under a couple of rugs we'd left there for 6 months! YUCK
