rodent damage

Mice ate through

Rodent damage is destruction caused by mice, rats, squirrels, and similar gnawing mammals.

The phrase appears most often in insurance policies, pest control contexts, and home inspections: The claim was denied because the policy excludes rodent damage.

Chewed wires, contaminated insulation, and holes in walls are typical examples.
