We can rid you of Mouse problems safely and efficiently
Keen senses of smell, hearing, touch, and taste allow mice to adapt to country, suburban, and city environments. They are considered one of the most troublesome household pests because of their feeding and nesting habits. For example, mice nibble on food meant for human consumption and end up contaminating more than they eat. House mice are the most common home-infesting species of rodent.
APPEARANCE
Small in stature, mice are slender with large, sparsely haired ears and long, hairless tails. They tend to be gray or brown in color and have small, protruding eyes. House mice weigh half an ounce and are roughly five to seven inches long, including their three to four inch tails. The pests are agile and use their claws to climb textured surfaces.
DIET
As opportunistic feeders, mice are not picky when it comes to their diets. They enjoy foods high in protein and fat, including cereal grains, nuts, butter, lard, and meat. The pests also like sweets and may pilfer supplies of chocolate. Mice feed 20 or more times in a single evening.
HABITAT
Dark, protected areas make the best habitats for mice. They craft nests out of fibrous materials such as shredded paper, cloth, and insulation that resemble tiny woven balls. In the wild, they like to settle in open fields or under the cover of debris such as woodpiles. Cold weather typically drives the pests inside homes.
