Mice
Although many people regard rats as a far bigger and more distasteful problem, mice infestations are more common and more damaging in our area. They are able to enter a home through even very small openings and breed rapidly. Mice infestations should be treated because mice
- Contaminate food and living areas with feces and urine
- Love to chew! They will gnaw through food packaging, drywall and other materials, and can create fire risk by damanging cords and electrical appliances
- Create odour and noise problems
- Can carry diseases such as salmonella and hantaviruses, and mites and parasites as well
- Damaage house plants and gardens
Rats

Rats are intelligent for their size, and are suspicious of new items (including bait and traps) in what they see as their environment.
