Tarin explained in subsequent updates that she ensured that their daughter slept with her father until the mystery was solved. It’s not termites, because their droppings are not this crunchy or “seed-like”. She eliminated roaches because not only did she do a thorough spray down, but she also never saw any live ones inside the house. The most she ever saw were a couple of dead ones rarely. She also explains that her childhood was spent on a farm, so she knows what mice droppings look like, and these are not them. The final suggestion was Bats, however, her location being West Texas makes it extremely unlikely.
The Mystery Finally Gets Solved
She also reiterated twice that she cleans the whole house daily and that it is only found in her daughter’s room. She actually says that it takes about two days at most to form. In the final update before the solution, she says that the landlords have been called to check them out. Regardless, Tarin was very thankful for the group’s reaction. Even if they had not managed to answer completely, they definitely helped her maintain a light mood throughout a worrying ordeal.
In the end, the solution is extremely out of place. One comment had apparently suggested that a lavender bear belonging to one of their kids had burst. At that point, stuff like this was inside. This made Tarin remember that the pile of toys on top of the mysterious pile had a lavender blush bear among them. She had discarded it because she assumed it was infested. She went back to search for it, found it, and saw that it, indeed, had a hole inside. When Tarin then looked at what was inside – lo and behold – it was the stuff in the mysterious pile! We suppose all’s well that ends well.
