How to keep mice under control in your home

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

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

• Food security – be careful not to attract mice with food. Meals must be stored in plastic or steel containers. Regularly wash under stoves, refrigerators and cupboards.
• Doors – fit bristle (or brush) strips to the bottom of doors to prevent entry, particularly in older properties where the door fit might not be snug
• Holes – these are usually made in outside walls for pipes and cables; check that old pipework holes are sealed also
• Air bricks and vents – cover those with fine galvanised wire mesh, particularly if they are damaged
• Eaves – repair damaged roofing and use wire mesh to seal openings
• .Vegetation – trim tree branches back in the house and where possible avoid plants growing up the sides of your property. Overgrown vegetation close to the walls will offer mice shelter and potential nesting sites
• Lawns – keep grass mown short to reduce shield and seeds for food. Ideally leave a gap between the construction foundations and the backyard.

Detecting Mice Problems

To know that you’re encountering mice problems at home or in business, here are indicative signs that there is an infestation:

• Droppings – since they’re cousins with rats, mice leave traces of their waste droppings which resembles chocolate sprinkles and smaller than rat droppings, which can be concentrated in one area. If you find one, DO NOT touch as you’ll be susceptible to acquire diseases.
• Gnawed items – mice need to keep their teeth trimmed which is why they are fond of gnawing or chewing on hard materials aside from food like plastics and wood. They can also have the capability to split to pieces papers.
• Noises – clearly, you may hear scratching and squeaking in your walls or on your roof especially at night that mice are active

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

Deterring Mice Problems

A careful and regular inspection is the first step in discovering mice infestation. Doing this thoroughly can help deter any mice problems. Though DIY methods can help, they can only supply short-term solutions. Hence, it’s good to consider long-term solutions to completely prevent such problems.

In fact, there are viable choices on how we can stop mice infestation but the simplest method is to seal entry points and keeping the environment clean.

Setting Traps and Baits

Traps are a strong defence. This is applicable to mice that are abiding easily inside the property. Obviously, we simply don’t set snares and baits like what we find in kid’s shows. Truth be told, there’s a legitimate method to do this.

For traps, there are two kinds: the tacky ones and the spring-loaded. Sticky traps can offer success by entrapping the mouse alive. However, it also has its downside. CDC said that live trapped mice can urinate and its infected urine can spread diseases.

For the spring-loaded trap, a lure is needed to lure rodents, a slice of cheese is an example. After setting the trap and bait, put the trap perpendicular to a wall (like a T). Put these traps where you believe you where the rodents are nestling.
