We took down a wooden garden playhouse which we'd had about 20 years. When we took the floor up there was a rat nest. They had one area for sleeping, one for pooing and one for eating absolutely covered with empty snail shells. For the sleeping area they had taken the dead Clematis heads and you could see their body shapes.
