What rats do to your insulation
The short answer
Rats and mice nest in ceiling insulation, tunnel through it and soil it with droppings and urine. That flattens it and leaves a musty, ammonia-like smell that drifts into the house. Don't disturb it yourself: the contaminated insulation is vacuumed out, the roof space cleaned and sanitised, and entry points sealed.
