Mice in Barmah forest

Have been told that there is a lot of mice in the forest
Eating thru tents and causing general havoc
Just a warning, I haven't experienced it myself

I don't doubt it for a minute, they seem to be everywhere, we had some in our house and baited them. They seem to have died in the wall cavities and phew, it pongs a lot, it's very unpleasant. I hope they rot quickly or the blowies lay eggs in them so the smell abates soon. We had rats another time and they did not smell as bad as the mice.
Cheers.
