Yea a lot of people are clueless to how much of an effect lawns have on keeping pests away from the house. Mice love living in tall grass while using your house as a buffet and bathroom.

Yet people will blame industry when our manicured cities take up far more space and are ecological disasters.

If we keep blaming those that make the products we demand and not us the consumer, the earth will shortly look far different.

Mice also get eaten by the various predators that would move in to eat them.
