Mice can squeeze through a gap about the width of a pencil and breed quickly once they settle. In Loganholme, they tend to move indoors when the weather cools, often from grassy verges, garden beds and garages. Common signs include tiny droppings in drawers, chewed food packets in the pantry and light scratching inside the kitchen walls at night. When you call, we give upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew.
Mice usually stay close to food, so the crew we book starts in the kitchen. They check under the sink, behind the fridge and dishwasher, inside the kickboards under cupboards and around the hot water system. They also look in the laundry and garage, where mice nest in stored boxes and bags of pet food. Once they find where the mice are feeding and nesting, they set traps along the walls where mice run.
- Kitchen, pantry, laundry and garage checked for nests and droppings
- Small snap traps and multi-catch traps along walls and behind appliances
- Gaps around pipes, cables and doors marked for sealing
- Advice on storing food and pet food in sealed containers
- Outdoor bait stations if mice are coming in from the yard
Traps are usually preferred inside, because they catch the mice where they can be found and removed. That avoids the smell of a mouse dying inside a wall. The crew explains where each trap goes and how many to expect before they start.
