Rotherham Mice Control

There are various species of mice in the United Kingdom. The most common species is the house mouse, although field mice will sometimes nest inside homes. Frequent 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 might eat through cables or damage pipes. They might also contaminate food and spread diseases. Mice can also damage buildings themselves as they gnaw through skirting boards or walls to get access to different parts of the property.

There are several different ways to treat a mice infestation. Traps can be found in either snap or live catch kinds. With either type, you’ll need to remove the mice humanely and safely. Poison can be used, although some poisons will need some time to take effect and you could discover dead mice in inaccessible regions of the building, where if they’re left they’ll cause a bad odour.

Experienced pest control companies can carry out a survey on the building to accurately identify the extent of the problem. They’ll then be able to give you advice on the best course of pest control treatment. This might include 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 stop mice from entering the property by filling any gaps in external walls to prevent access.
