Mouse Control

Clean up food crumbs around your home by keeping your floors swept clean. Make sure that you basement and crawl spaces are kept dry. This helps eliminate some potential water sources for pests. You should also fix leaky pipes and clogged drains. Store food in solid containers that mice cannot easily gnaw through. Remove your kitchen trash as soon as the can is full or whenever you have smelly food inside your can. Keep a tight-fitting lid over your garbage to prevent mice from accessing it. Mice can locate existing holes and gnaw on them to widen the holes and enter to a home. Seal off any holes you find in your home to exclude mice from your residence.
