I am bald….
I know. So is the cat. I think it makes quite a fashion statement.
My friend had one and whenever it got annoying he’d just open a window and the thing would crawl off and hide in a bunch of blankets for warmth.
Our cat likes to explore and follows me everywhere so I let him hang out in both the garage and shop. Same for the last house. Seems just the scent of the cat is enough to keep mice away because I've never had a problem (and I see mice outside the house all the time). Cat catches them inside frequently (new build, still finding spots to seal up).

I have a cat, a Russian Blue, he's a ferocious hunter. He drags home small rodents every day, even rabbits which he drops off to his Siberian Husky buddy. The ravine behind us provides an endless supply of urban wildlife, just too many for him to manage. In his younger days, he'd fight the bigger stuff raccoons even the odd fox.
The heater mice squeezed thru a 16mm cable grommet into the electronics box of my pool heater. I'm guessing the small amount of heat generated by the transformer and circuit board plus the immense amount of insulation they manufactured kept them warm over the winter -- at least until they chewed thru the transformer.
Years ago we had a herd of feral cats living in the ravine, they kept the rodent population down. Crazy cat ladies were building them houses and feeding them which caused a population explosion so the town cleared them out.
from the quoted $200.

Uh oh, should there be? There is an ice barrier closer down to the gutters.
Not required. Good idea.
In a builders roof 15 yrs ago you got tar paper (15lb felt) at starter edge and no ice barrier on valleys or eves . In a basic reroof you get ice shield at the start and up the valleys , good reroof you get a barrier paper on the whole roof , ice shield membrane at gutters and up the valleys and around any openings . Most subdivision roofs are a 10-12 yr deal at best .

I’ve been stress testing it all afternoon and I think it works.New patio table seems very handy.
