As one of the smallest prey species, mice will seek out access points along the ground and mid-levels of a structure where they can enter without being easily seen.

Although a common misconception, mice rarely enter through doors left open as this leaves them exposed and vulnerable and would much rather find a sneaky hole in your wall to come and go unnoticed. 

In many cases, structures come with inherent built-in vulnerabilities - look out for access points along your siding, foundation, ground level vents and utility lines where rodents will chew to gain entry or make use of existing gaps.

Approaching every structure with a fine-tooth comb is vital to solving the problem.

This is because baby mice can squeeze through a ½” gap. Only by ground level pest proofing using ¼” mesh and rodent-proof materials can you to prevent ongoing entry and negate vulnerabilities.
 
However just because you are seeing mice activity such as rice-grain size droppings and chewing in one area doesn’t mean they are confined to that spot. Once mice enter a structure, they easily move between shared structural space and utility lines between rooms, floors and units in search of food. 

Check your jacket pockets!

As mice can live off crumbs, that emergency granola you forgot from last Summer in your hiking bag stored in your bedroom cupboard may just be a jackpot a mouse needs to survive. Ensure no accessible food when running a targeted poison-free trapping program once the structure has been sealed up to remove all mice locked inside.

Mice are notoriously difficult to get rid of, however with our team’s expertise we can ensure you get to the result in the quickest time possible. You may have structural anomalies such as dirt crawl spaces, discontinued city plumbing and renovated structural footprints which are all variables’ rodents will exploit but having a team know how to address these will leave you feeling supported and protected.

Our team will not only have you mouse-free but our service it will increase the value of your structure by protecting against ongoing rodent damage. Go see for yourself on our mouse page.
