Mice

Mice are small rodents that can contaminate food, spread disease, and cause property damage. They reproduce rapidly and can quickly become a serious infestation.

Appearance

House mice are small (3-4 inches long) with pointed snouts, large ears, and thin tails. They are typically light brown to gray in color.

Habitat

Mice can live in a variety of environments but prefer warm, sheltered areas near food sources. In homes, they often nest in wall voids, attics, basements, and behind appliances.

Signs of Infestation

  • Droppings (small, dark, and rod-shaped)
  • Gnaw marks on food packaging or structures
  • Scratching sounds in walls or ceilings
  • Nests made of shredded paper, fabric, or insulation
  • Musky odor in enclosed spaces

Prevention Tips

  • Seal cracks and holes in the foundation and exterior walls
  • Store food in airtight containers
  • Keep kitchen and dining areas clean
  • Reduce clutter where mice can hide
  • Set up a regular inspection schedule

Treatment Options

Mouse control involves a combination of trapping, baiting, and exclusion methods. Our technicians will identify entry points, implement effective control measures, and provide recommendations to prevent future infestations.
