Got a problem with mice in your home?

Presence of rodents in the residential environment is a health hazard to yourself, your loved ones, your visitors and your pets.

Rats and mice, like other creatures which live in rubbish tips, drains, sewers and other unhygienic places, pick up disease-causing germs from their surroundings. Then they spread dangerous ailments by entering buildings and transferring germs to food, walls and floors, counters, tables, storage areas, amenities, utensils and other places where people may come in contact with them.

Rats and mice can easily pass disease-causing germs to people via depositing infected urine or feces during a premise or even by means of biting human beings and household pets.

Along with being a disease-carrier, rats and mice can also bring massive damage to furniture, doorways, skirtings, upholstery, books, meals and packaging, and are considered to cause house fires after chewing through electric cables.

Rats and mice differ in sizemice being much smaller compared to rats. Ground and roof rats are similar in size. In Australia, there are a number of introduced (feral) rodents which are pests around homes and outbuildings.

They can also multiply fast and could do extensive damage to your private home, furnishings and business with their gnawing habits. They can contaminate meals and things with their droppings. Their droppings can also trigger asthma when inhaled.

House mice or mus domesticus are active all year round, it follows you could find them invading your own home or business establishment at any time. Its habits usually consist of floor dwelling and burrowing, but often climbs. It will consume around three (3) grams of meals every day and can live without any additional water. They will drink up to three (3) ml a day if their diet is particularly dry.

Detecting Mice Problems

To confirm if you are experiencing mice problems at home or in business, here are indicative signs that there’s an infestation:

• Droppings – since they are cousins with rats, mice leave traces of their waste droppings which looks like chocolate sprinkles and smaller compared to rat droppings, which are concentrated in one area. If you find one, DO NOT touch as you’ll be susceptible to acquire diseases.
• Urine – the odor of their dark coloured urine can be nasty. If you find one and may be surrounded with their droppings, DO NOT try to clean it without so much as wearing protective gear such as masks, gloves and long sleeved clothing.
• Noises – obviously, you may hear scratching and squeaking in your walls or in your roof especially at night which mice are most active

Other signs that there is a mice infestation:

Deterring Mice Problems

An initial inspection is the first step in detecting mice infestation. Doing this very well can assist in deterring any mice issues. Though DIY methods can alleviate the problem, these can only provide short-term solutions. Consequently, it is best to consider long-term ones to completely stop the problem.

Hence, it is wise to consider long-term measures to get the desired effects in dealing with mice problems.

Setting Traps and Baits

Traps are a good defense. This is applicable to mice that are dwelling comfortably inside the property. Of course, we simply don’t set traps and baits like what we see in cartoons. In fact, there’s a proper way to do this.

For traps, there are actually two kinds: the tacky ones and the spring-loaded. Sticky traps can offer success by entrapping the mouse living though it also has its downside. CDC stated that live trapped mice can urinate out panic and mice urine can spread diseases.
