Cheadle Mice Control

There are various species of mice in the United Kingdom. The most common species is the house mouse, although field mice have been known to nest inside properties. Common warning signs of a mouse infestation in a building include droppings being found, markings on skirting boards, a strong ammonia-like smell or hearing scratching noises as they move around. Mice can cause lots of problems inside homes. They can eat through cables or cause damage to pipes. They could also contaminate foodstuffs and spread diseases. Mice may also damage buildings themselves as they gnaw through skirting boards or walls to gain access to different areas of the home.

There are numerous different methods to treat a mice infestation. Traps can be purchased in either snap or live catch varieties. With either kind, you will need to remove the mice humanely and safely. Poison may also be utilised, although many poisons will take some time to have an effect and you may find dead mice in inaccessible parts of the building, where if they are left they’ll result in an undesirable odour.

Experienced pest control companies can perform a survey on the building to correctly identify the extent of the issue. They’ll then be able to inform you of the most effective course of pest control treatment. This could involve trapping or baiting, and likely a mixture of both which will be targeted to effective control the pest infestation. They can also advise you of the most effective ways to prevent mice from entering the home by filling any spaces in external walls to block access.
