Got a problem with mice in your home?

Presence of rodents in the residential environment is a health hazard to yourself, your loved ones, your visitors and your pets.

Mice is a huge nuisance in a household environment. They rely on the rubbish for it is among the sources of their food and they are able to flourish in drains, sewers and unsanitary places where they pick-up germs which are the primary cause of diseases.

Rats and mice can also pass disease-causing germs to humans by depositing infected urine or stool throughout a premises on flat surfaces, fabrics and carpets, or by biting humans and household pets.

In addition to being a major pest since they disperse illness, mice and rodents can similarly make damage to furnishings, entryways, skirtings, upholstery, books, food and other packaging, and are known to cause home fires in the aftermath of biting through electrical links.

Rats and mice vary in size, mice being a lot smaller than rats. In Australia, there are various rodent species that are introduced and considered as pest to families and environmental communities.

Mice can also multiply quickly and will do significant damage to your home, business and furniture through their gnawing activities. They will also contaminate food and other materials throughout the droppings they leave behind. Their droppings have been implicated as possible asthma triggers in children.

House mice or mus domesticus are busy all year round, which means you could find them invading your home or business at any time. Its customs usually include floor living and burrowing, but often climbs. It will eat around three (3) grams of food a day and can survive without any additional water. They will drink up to three (3) ml a day when their diet is very dry.

How to keep mice under control in your home

Mice require a food source, refuge and easy access. They select dry, warm areas where they may be no longer disturbed and may build nests.

There are also preventative ways we can do to minimise mice experience at home particularly if the source of infestation is not yet identified. Here are a few to do this before calling the help of experts:

• Food security – be careful not to attract mice with meals. Meals must always be stored in plastic or steel containers. Regularly clean under stoves, refrigerators and cupboards.
• Doors – fit bristle (or brush) strips to the base of doors to prevent entry, particularly in older properties where the door fit may not be snug
• Holes – these are often created in exterior walls for cables and pipes; consider that old pipework holes and ensure they are sealed also
• Air bricks and vents – cover those with best galvanised cord mesh, mainly if they are damaged
• Eaves – repair damaged roofing and utilise wire mesh to seal openings
• Vegetation – trim tree limbs once more from the home and where conceivable dodge plants growing up the sides of your property. Congested vegetation near the dividers will offer mice secure house and potential settling destinations.
• Lawns – keep grass mown short to decrease shelter and seeds for food. Ideally leave a gap between the construction foundations and the garden.

Detecting Mice Problems

To confirm if you are experiencing mice issues in your home or in business, here are indicative signs and symptoms that there is an infestation:

• Droppings – since they’re cousins with rats leave traces of their waste droppings which looks like chocolate sprinkles and smaller compared to rat droppings, which are concentrated in one area. If you find one, DO NOT touch as you’ll be vulnerable to acquire diseases.
• Urine – the odor of their dark coloured urine can be nasty. If you find one and may be surrounded by their droppings, DO NOT attempt to clean it without even wearing protective gear such as masks, gloves and long sleeved clothing.
• Noises – obviously, you may hear scratching and squeaking in your walls or on your roof especially at night which mice are most active

Different signs that there is a mice infestation:

• Pee and musty, stale odor
• Smear marks
• Ripped food packages

Deterring Mice Problems

A careful and regular inspection is the first step in detecting mice infestation. Doing so thoroughly can help deter any mice problems. Though DIY methods can help, they could only provide short-term solutions. Hence, it is good to think of 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 surroundings clean.

Setting Traps and Baits

Traps are a powerful defence. This is an effective method as well to capture live rodents which 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 on how to do this.

For existing mice infestation, we can provide quick, guaranteed support to get rid of mice safely from your home or business.

For the spring-loaded trap, you need to put 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 good deal of mouse activity.
