Rodents! A word of warning for heat pump owners
Thanks David. But it's not straightforward to "remove the rodents" is it?
Whilst I don't (yet) have a heat-pump, nor external insulated water pipes at ground level, I'm in a rural location with the usual population density of mice.
I also have owls, stoats, magpies, buzzards and other hawks.
But I guess you're inferring that natural predation is inadequate to remove mice attracted to ASHP pipework.
