All you need are some outside cats roaming the spacious yard to discourage the small cute furry little rodents from “cozying” up in your house. When living in an urban dwelling with 50 other families, other strategies are needed.

Drop a piece of trash on the interstate in the middle of nowhere and you can be fined $500 or more. Defecate in front of a sidewalk cafe in San Francisco and you get a pass. Strange world we live in.
