Time to Get Rid of these Critters!

How do mice get into my house?

Mice like to live in houses where people aren’t around as much. They look for places where they won’t be bothered to build their nests. A single mouse will build a nest where it will live and raise its young.

When the puppies are old enough to live independently, they leave the nest and build their own. Nests can be found just about anywhere inside or outside a home.

The places where mice nests are most likely to be found are:

Attics
Wall Holes
Insulation
Under Refrigerators
Under Stoves
Under Dishwashers

Mice like to live in safe and protected places where there isn’t much going on and where there is easy access to food and water.

What’s the difference between rats and mice?

The typical House Mouse (Mus musculus) is between two and four inches long. On the other hand, the Norway Rat is between seven and nine inches long and much bigger. Of course, it may be easy to tell the difference between an adult Norway Rat and an adult House Mouse, but a young Norway Rat that hasn’t grown to full size can look like an adult house mouse.

Mice are good at climbing, so it’s not hard for them to move into your attic and make a nest there. Mice are small enough to fit through holes you wouldn’t think anything could fit in. It means they can get into parts of your home you thought were safe. Rats, on the other hand, can climb, but they like to live in lower parts of a building, like a basement or a crawlspace.

Rats and mice can chew on different parts of your house and wires, which can cause fire hazards. Rats have stronger teeth than mice, so rats may contaminate the food that is properly stored in glass or metal, but mice may be unable to do this. Rats are much stronger than mice, and some of them have been known to chew through aluminum, wood, glass, sheet metal, and even cinder blocks.

How much does it cost to keep mice away?

Research is the best way to determine if you are being charged too much or too little. Prices at local pest control companies will vary a lot depending on what they do and what tools they use. To find a pest control company with prices that meet your needs, you must first decide what is most important to you and then ask the questions below.

Reliability: Find out what the service is and how it works. Will the company come out again after the first service? Does the state license the technicians?
Service Guarantee: Is the quality of the service guaranteed? Will the company do anything to keep your home free of pests?
Reputation: How long has the business been in operation? How do people rate them online?
Tactics: Are they using chemicals the way they say on the label? Is there science behind their services? Are they using as few pesticides as possible?
Price Only: Which company is the cheapest, no matter how good the service is?

What should I do to remove them?

Dr. Richard Cooper, an entomologist for Cooper Pest Solutions, says that mice only need a 1/4-inch gap to get into your home. “So, homeowners need to seal up any holes 1/4 inch or bigger around entry doors, garage doors, and places where utilities come in.” Mouse activity can happen all year, but it’s usually a more significant problem when the warmer months end and the mice are looking for a place to stay out of the cold. Mice are drawn to your home because they have found a food source and don’t get bothered by anyone, which lets them multiply. If you follow the steps below, you can quickly stop mice from taking over your home.

Food: Make it a habit to clean up crumbs in your kitchen and put boxed foods like cereal into plastic containers with lids.
Entry Points: Fill in cracks and holes around your home’s foundation.
Inspection by Sight: Do checks by sight. Do you see mouse droppings?

Do you hear scratching noises in the night? The faster you do something about a problem, the faster it can be fixed.

Do I have mice or squirrels?

The following are ways to spot a mouse:

Droppings: Mice eat all day long, which is a lot for their tiny bodies. The droppings left behind look like grains of rice and are black or brown.
Scratching: They are creatures of the night. Mice could be making light scratching noises in your house at night.
Tampered Food: When mice look for a place to live, they also look for food. It’s much easier to eat food from your pantry than to go outside and look for food in bad weather. Cereal boxes or other pantry items that look like the edges have been chewed through are a sign that they have been tampered with.

Like mice, squirrels can get into your attic and build their nests. The main difference between squirrels and mice is when they are active during the day. Mice are active at night, but squirrels are active during the day. If the pests in your house are really mice, you probably won’t see them running through a room because they crawl along the edges of walls. Since they are nocturnal, they will do most of their work at night. You hear scratching, jumping, or scurrying sounds in your house. There are squirrel droppings all over your attic. All kinds of damage along the roof line, including around the fascia boards, shingles, eaves troughs, and outer panels. The squirrel urine and poop will leave strange smells and “water damage” marks on your walls and ceilings.
