A retired postman must have rubbed his eyes a few times, because it certainly looked like a mouse was tidying up his workbench for him.

The Ratatouille-like scene had played on the man's mind for days after he noticed on several occasions that things in his garden shed were being mysteriously cleaned up overnight.

Setting up a camera to catch the cleaning culprit, he beheld that it was a little mouse.

The video shows the mouse picking up corks, clothespins, and other things and putting them in a small box, clearing the workspace of the man's shed for the next day at his home in Wales.

"Ninety-nine times out of 100, the mouse will tidy up throughout the night," he told the BBC. "It is incredible really that they put them all back in the box, I think it's possible that they enjoy it."

He doesn't even bother to clean up now, assuming they will put anything back in the box on their own.

As far as a motive, the only idea he has is that the objects are piled on top of a cache of nuts, and that without dirt or leaves, miscellaneous objects are the only options for the mouse.
