Before you hire someone for mouse extermination you should have your pest problem properly identified by a Connecticut licensed pest control company like Connecticut Termite and Pest Control. Just because you are hearing noises in the walls and or attic does not mean its mice. It could be rats, insects, or even the house settling.
If you do have a mouse problem and need mouse extermination there are many reasons why and how they are in your home or business. The mice could be there because you have a nice food source for them, or they are nesting in your building because it is a nice, safe, and warm place for them to raise a family. Mice can gain entrance into your building by many ways. Once inside if there is a male and a female mouse they will multiply.
Any conceivable rodent entry points and feeding sources must be determined and addressed to completely get rid of your mouse problem. All accessible food sources, including pet food, should be kept in containers with a seal on them. All countertops, under the stove and refrigerator, floors, shelves, garbage cans should be kept clean and free of crumbs and grease.
Mice can enter your home or business from a hole as small as a dime. All possible mouse entry points should be blocked off or sealed. Holes, cracks, and crevices in stone, brick, or concrete foundations should be sealed up using concrete patch, mortar, or steel wool. Any open voids around pipe, gas lines, and HVAC should be filled with a rodent proof sealant. Dryer vents should be capped off with a cage.
Mouse extermination techniques can vary by what kind of place has a mouse problem. If the mouse problem is in a home rodent poison bait should not be used initially because the mice might die in your walls. This will give you a very unpleasant smell in your home for quite some time, along with a possible fly infestation. Mouse trapping techniques vary, and each has their own advantages and disadvantages. Snap traps cause a quick kill for the mouse but can be hazardous to children and pets. Glue traps are good at catching smaller mice, but larger ones tend to get off. Glue traps also do not kill mice instantly. Live traps are also advantageous in catching mice but must be checked more often. Also, when you catch a live mouse what do you do with it?
Having a mouse infestation in your home or business can be alarming, damaging, and dangerous to people. Mice like what we eat, so they will eat food left out, they also shred paper and plastic to make nests. Mice carry some nasty diseases like salmonella and hantavirus. Mice spread diseases, viruses, and bacteria through their urine, feces, and saliva.
