Protecting your Home and Family from Mice
Mice can also do significant damage to your home and furniture by constant gnawing and they have been known to chew through electrical cables.Having mice in your home is more than an inconvenience – these rodents can be a serious health risk due to the diseases they can spread, particularly in kitchens or areas where children play.
Signs of Mice infestation
The basic signs of a house mouse problem are:
How to keep mice awayScratching – noises in the walls or ceilings as mice scurry around- Droppings – mice leave small, dark droppings particularly along walls or in areas of significant activity such as in cupboards or under sinks
- Distinctive smell – mice leave a trail that leaves an ammonia-like smell that will be particularly strong in more enclosed areas such as under cupboards and in loft spaces
- Damage – mice have teeth that grow continuously and will gnaw on wood, plastic, cables and other hard materials
- Nests – mice build nests with shredded material such as newspaper and fabrics. These will tend to be in quiet, hidden places and will often contain young mice
The first line of defence against mice is to proof your home. Mice have soft skeletons and can get through holes the width of a pencil, so it is important to seal any holes to the exterior and fit weather strips around doors.
It is important not to attract mice with food – where possible, store food in strong containers. Regularly clean under cookers and cupboards.
Ultrasonic mice repellers emit sound that is uncomfortable for mice but cannot be heard by people. These may help as a deterrent, but we do not recommend them for existing infestations as mice can swiftly acclimatise to ultrasound.
