Why Mice Are a Problem
Mice may be small, but their impact can be significant:
- Property Damage: Mice gnaw on wires, furniture, and insulation, leading to costly repairs.
- Health Risks: Mice carry diseases like salmonella and hantavirus, which can contaminate food and surfaces.
- Rapid Reproduction: Mice breed quickly, with a single pair capable of producing dozens of offspring in just a few months.
Understanding Mice: Key Facts
- Size and Appearance: Mice are small rodents, about 2.5 to 4 inches long, with large ears, slender bodies, and long tails. Their fur is typically grey or brown.
- Breeding Habits: Female mice produce 5–6 young per litter and can have multiple litters each year. Young mice reach maturity in just 4–6 weeks.
- Habits and Behavior: Mice are excellent climbers and can squeeze through openings as small as 1/4 inch. They are curious creatures and often explore hidden areas like wall voids, attics, and basements.
Signs of a Mouse Infestation
Early detection is crucial. Be on the lookout for:
- Droppings: Small, rod-shaped droppings near food sources, cabinets, or hidden spaces.
- Gnaw Marks: Damage to wires, furniture, and packaging.
- Noises: Squeaking or scratching sounds, especially at night.
- Nesting Materials: Evidence of shredded paper, fabric, or insulation.
- Tracks or Smudges: Mice leave grease marks along walls and floorboards as they travel.
If you notice these signs, don’t wait—contact TDS Pest Control for a professional inspection.
Why Mice Enter Your Home
Mice are resourceful and constantly on the lookout for:
- Shelter: Warm, secluded spaces like attics, basements, or wall cavities.
- Food: Accessible food sources, from crumbs to unsecured pantry items.
- Water: Even small leaks or standing water can attract mice.
Their ability to squeeze through tiny gaps makes it easy for them to find their way into your home.
Preventing Mouse Infestations
Take these steps to protect your property:
- Seal Entry Points: Block cracks, gaps, and holes around windows, doors, and utility lines.
- Store Food Properly: Use airtight containers and keep your kitchen free of crumbs and spills.
- Clean Your Garden: Remove fallen fruits, seeds, and debris that attract mice.
- Secure Rubbish Bins: Use bins with tight-fitting lids to deter scavenging.
- Declutter: Minimize clutter in storage areas to eliminate hiding spots.
