  1. Curious how a "mouse line" works? Sleeping with mice could not be pleasant.

  2. Mice can't maneuver around that can without falling off the line, so whatever you hang on the stick is safe.

    And mice are not welcome. It's hard to ignore their scampering if they are particularly active in a shelter.
