Budgies free-roam, but how to stop mess and mice in their cage?

Question

Hi I have two budgies, have had them for a year now. I've always let them out in the day and they usually perch on the curtains or in the bathroom, and at night they fly back into the cage.Initially,my parents were fine with the mess but they have become very frustrated recently. You can find a lot of bird poo in the rooms and now we are facing the problem of mice coming into their cage for seeds. I dont they'd be happy in the cage for the whole day but what else can I do to reduce the mess???

Thanks for reaching out about your birds. Quite the dilemna. The answer really depends on the size of the cage, on how long they can be left in it. Out of cage exercise is important for health, just as exercise for humans. Could you limit to the one room? Good luck.
