May I ask where you get your information on this.  If you read about the
Hagerstown ferrets like most of us.  You would have read how the mice
where all over that garage with all those ferrets there.  Along with all
the poop from the ferrets that was not cleaned and there were pictures of
it along with the mice and rats all thru the place.
 
I would also like to know how long you have had ferrets to know all this
stuff.  There is nothing wrong with saying in your option (imo) or your
experience.
