What are the most common mice hiding spots?

What attracts mice and rats?
Mice and rats are primarily attracted to properties offering accessible food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include open food containers, crumbs on surfaces, unsealed garbage bins, pet food left out, and leaky pipes. Clutter, overgrown gardens, and stacked items close to the building foundation provide convenient hiding and nesting spots. Sealing entry points and maintaining cleanliness, including proper waste management and garden maintenance, are crucial prevention tips.
Are mice dangerous?
Yes, actually. On the one hand, they can cause damage to your property. On the other, they can also transmit certain diseases through their droppings, which is why you should avoid coming into direct contact with the animals at all cost.
Can I get ill from being near or in contact with a mouse?
es, you can potentially get ill from being near or in contact with a mouse. Mice can carry various germs and diseases, such as Hantavirus and Salmonellosis, which can be spread through their urine, faeces, saliva, or even through ticks, fleas, and mites they carry. Direct contact should be avoided, and affected areas should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after an infestation to minimize health risks and prevent disease transmission.
Do mice bite?
Yes, mice can bite, although it is relatively rare for them to bite humans unless they feel threatened, cornered, or are handled. If you spot a mouse in your home, it is best not to threaten it or get too close, as they may bite in self-defense. Their propensity to gnaw on various materials, including electrical wiring, poses a risk of property damage.
Who is responsible for dealing with infestations in rented homes)?
Responsibility for dealing with infestations in rented homes typically depends on the tenancy agreement and the cause of the infestation. Landlords are usually responsible if the infestation was present when you moved in, if the tenancy agreement states their responsibility, or if it was caused by the landlord failing to make necessary repairs like fixing holes in walls. Tenants might be responsible if their actions, such as improper waste disposal, attracted the pests. Local councils may also have powers to intervene if the infestation poses a health risk.
How long will it take to get the mice out of my house?
The time it takes to get mice out of your house can vary depending on factors such as the extent of the infestation, the size of the house, and the extermination methods used. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to completely eliminate mice from a home. Our service typically handles mouse infestation treatment in one visit, and the pest technician will remain until the job is completed, often following up with additional visits within 3 months if needed to ensure eradication.
