Are cats actually effective at pest control or is that cat propaganda? How would cats operate in these societies?

I know they can catch pests but are they effective at controlling them? Maybe they will limit the growth of pests, so better than nothing. Most cats catch for fun rather than food I think

Maybe we had much more cats around for this purpose, if so I'd imagine there is some archeological proof.
