    not touching it (until you replace it) is a good game plan.

    that eliminates breakage and just leaves rats as the unpredictable variable.

    check out “knob and tube” wiring if you really don’t want to sleep well at night.

    that stuff’s a horror show by today’s standards.

      I know all about knob and tube, yes. There are some thankfully already decommissioned stretches of that nailed to the joists in my basement which I’ve left there as a historical curio.
