Loves to upset rodents (5)
I believe the answer is:
voles
'rodents' is the definition.
(I know this)
'loves to upset' is the wordplay.
'to upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'loves' is an anagram of 'VOLES'.
(Another definition for voles that I've seen is " Mouse-like rodents found in fields and meadows".)
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
