Mice

– Look for small dark droppings along baseboards.
– Find chewed cardboard and gnaw marks on wires.
– Hear scratching in walls and above ceilings at night.
– See greasy run marks near pantry or storage areas.

Snap traps baited with peanut butter placed along walls and runways; seal all entry points after population reduction; tamper-resistant bait stations for ongoing perimeter control.

We set snap traps along walls and runways. Then we seal holes and use bait stations outside.

– Seal entry points — any gap a pencil can fit through can admit a mouse.

– Store all food including pet food in sealed containers.

– Keep kitchen surfaces clean and empty trash bins nightly.

– Place snap traps along walls and behind appliances where mice travel.

– Remove clutter and cardboard from garage and basement to eliminate nesting material.

– Seal gaps the size of a pencil or larger.

– Store pet food and birdseed in metal cans.

– Cut back brush and woodpiles near foundations.

– Keep attics and basements dry and well sealed.

– Check for entry points each fall before freezes.
