Is it possible for an neighbor's apartment to have mice but not mine? (lemmy.world)

I just found out that my neighbor that I share a wall with is moving out because of "the mouse issue." This is the first I've heard about it. I'm pretty sure I don't have mice. I haven't found any chewed food packaging or what looks like mouse droppings. I do have a cat but I'm not confident he would know how to kill a mouse. I've never seen him chase anything on the floor but I know he will chase flying insects. I also haven't been presented with any "presents." Could he really be keeping the mice from my apartment by just his scent?

Honestly, it sounds more like they don't show older ones, but they are still calculated into the score. But like I said, I'm not informed and haven't used a mouse trap in over a decade...

Or newer ones either, apparently. Every single review lies within that December to February timeframe.

I went over to an Amazon listing for this same kind of trap and the average of 786 reviews is 4.4 stars out of 5. There's much more variety in the 1-star reviews over there, too.
