Woking Mice Control

There are several species of mice in the United Kingdom. The most widespread species is the house mouse, although field mice will occasionally nest inside houses. Frequent signals 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 cause lots of problems inside homes. They can eat through cables or damage pipes. They may also contaminate foodstuffs and spread diseases. Mice will also cause damage to buildings themselves as they gnaw through skirting boards or walls to get access to different areas of the property.

There are many different ways to treat a mice infestation. Traps can be found in either snap or live catch kinds. With either variety, you will need to remove the mice humanely and safely. Poison may also be used, although some poisons will need some time to have an effect and you could find dead mice in inaccessible regions of the building, where if they’re left they’ll result in an unpleasant smell.

Experienced pest control companies can carry out a survey on the building to accurately identify the scope of the infestation. They’ll then be able to give you advice on the most effective course of pest control treatment. This may require 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 deter mice from entering the house by filling any spaces in external walls to block access.
