Avon Mice Control

There are a few species of mice in the United Kingdom. The most widespread species is the house mouse, although field mice will sometimes nest inside buildings. Typical signs of a mouse infestation in a building include droppings being found, marks on skirting boards, a powerful ammonia-like odour or hearing scratching noises as they move around. Mice can cause a lot of problems inside homes. They may eat through cables or damage pipes. They can also contaminate food and spread diseases. Mice may also damage buildings themselves as they gnaw through skirting boards or walls to get access to different areas of the property.

There are several different ways to treat a mice infestation. Traps are available in either snap or live catch forms. With either sort, you’ll need to dispose of the mice humanely and safely. Poison may also be utilised, although many poisons will take some time to take effect and you could find dead mice in inaccessible areas of the building, where if they are left they will cause an unpleasant smell.

Experienced pest control companies can perform a survey on the building to correctly identify the scope of the infestation. They will then be able to advise you of the most effective course of pest control treatment. This could require trapping or baiting, and likely a combination of both which will be aimed at effectively controlling the pest infestation. They can also advise you of the best ways to stop mice from getting into the property by filling any spaces in external walls to block access.
