How to keep mice under control in your home

Mice require a food source, shelter and easy access. They prefer dry, warm areas in which they are not disturbed and can build nests.

There are many methods to help control mice in your assumptions Here are a few:

• Food safety – be careful not to attract mice with food. Where potential food should be stored in plastic or metal containers. Regularly wash under stoves, refrigerators and cupboards.
• Doors – fit bristle (or brush) strips to the base of doors to save you access, especially in older houses wherein the door match might not be snug
• Gaps – these are regularly made in outside dividers for links and pipes; observe that old pipework gaps are fixed as well
• Air bricks and vents – cover these with fine galvanised wire mesh particularly if they’re damaged
• Eaves — fix damaged roofing and use twine mesh to seal openings
• Vegetation – trim tree branches lower back from the home and wherein viable keep away from plants growing up the sides of your personal home. Overgrown plants close to the walls will provide mice shelter and the ability to perform nesting sites.

Detecting Mice Problems

To confirm if you are experiencing mice problems at home or in business, here are indicative signs that there is an infestation:

• Droppings – their droppings are the same as rats. They leave traces of it and are usually concentrated in one area. Their droppings looked like chocolate sprinkles and are smaller than rats.
• Chewed up packages or stuff – this is obvious as you might find some chewed up bits of stuff like newspapers or even the surfaces of your furniture.
• Gnawed items – mice will need to keep their teeth trimmed that is why they are fond of gnawing or chewing on hard materials other than food like wood and plastics. They can also have the capability to rip to pieces papers.

Other signs that there is a mice infestation:

• Pee and musty, stale odor
• Smear marks – these are often greasy marks left on areas where they rub their skin accompanied by fur and dirt
• Ripped food packages

Setting Traps and Baits

Traps are a powerful defence. This is an effective method as well to catch live rodents that are pestering all over the area. In fact, we just don’t establish traps and baits like what we see in cartoons. There are right ways about how to do this.

For existing mice infestation, we can provide quick, guaranteed support to eliminate mice safely from your house or business.

For the spring-loaded trap, you need to set a bait to lure them, a piece of cheese for example. After preparing the trap, it’s very important to put the trap perpendicular to a wall (like a T). Lie these traps where you think there’s a lot of mouse activity.
