Windsor Mice Control

There are numerous species of mice in the UK. The most frequent species is the house mouse, although field mice have been known to nest inside properties. Frequent warning signs of a mouse infestation in a building include droppings being found, marks on skirting boards, a strong ammonia-like smell or hearing scratching noises as they move around. Mice can create a lot of problems inside homes. They could eat through cables or cause damage to pipes. They might also contaminate food products and spread diseases. Mice can also cause damage to buildings themselves as they gnaw through skirting boards or walls to access different areas of the house.

There are several different techniques to treat a mice infestation. Traps can be purchased in either snap or live catch kinds. With either type, you’ll need to dispose of the mice humanely and safely. Poison may also be utilised, although many poisons will need some time to have an effect and you might discover dead mice in inaccessible parts of the building, where if they are left they’ll cause an unpleasant odour.

Professional pest control companies can perform a survey on the building to correctly identify the extent of the issue. They will then be able to advise you of the best course of pest control treatment. This could require trapping or baiting, and likely a combination of both which will be targeted to effective control the pest infestation. They can also advise you of the most effective ways to discourage mice from getting into the house by filling any spaces in external walls to prevent access.
