No I'm pretty sure lime is used to reduce acidity.

Lime is a calcium oxide and you add calcium to soil to reduce acidity.

Actually Ammonia is a gas and is not what is making the soil Acidic. The thing that is raising the acidity of the soil is the actual excretions from the rats, snakes, and other reptiles. Ammonia is a product of these excretions that is being released as a gas.
