Mice Removal
The house mouse, one of the most detrimental pests in the United States, is second only to humans as the most common mammal in cities across the nation. House mice are notorious nibblers who climb, jump, and swim in order to get to their favorite foods, which are often found in houses, farms, open fields, and commercial buildings. They are curious and fearless creatures that will chew through walls, electrical cables, and storage containers in order to get what they want.
Mouse control begins with a thorough inspection to determine how severe the problem is. The more established mice are, the more involved the control process will be.
When approaching a rodent removal plan, the key to long-term success is to consider the entire mouse population. A few mouse traps won’t solve the problem. A comprehensive plan will include careful inspection, trapping, removal, exclusion, prevention, and clean-up. The goal is to exterminate the current infestation, prevent future issues, and reclaim a sanitary environment.
During a rodent inspection, our inspector will thoroughly inspect your attic as well as provide a full exterior home inspection. The most common signs of rodent activity are chewing, droppings, rub marks, nesting material, and small entry points.
Based on the inspection, our wildlife specialist creates a strategic trapping plan to remove the mice found in your home. Types of traps, placement of traps, and bait used in traps determine the effectiveness of rodent trapping.
Our wildlife specialist will ensure to use of the most efficient and safe removal process for your home. Though the standard trapping/removal duration is normally between 5 to 14 days, the trapping process may be longer if the rodents are well-established.
Rodent exclusion is the best way to prevent mice from entering your home, but many homeowners do not protect their home until they have experienced a nuisance animal. After rodent removal, it is essential to repair any entry points in your home.
Removing trees or branches close to your roof and keeping your property clear of debris can help to keep your property rodent-free. Rodents love clutter and will use debris for nesting material.
Keep your garage door closed as much as possible, especially at night. Garages are often used as storage spaces, and rodents will take advantage of any food they can get or any items that can be used for nesting.
