Get Free QuotesFrequently Asked Questions About Rodents
Are rodents dangerous?
Yes. Rodents carry diseases including Hantavirus, Salmonella, and Leptospirosis. They contaminate food with droppings and urine, and chewed wiring causes thousands of house fires annually.
How do mice get into my house?
Mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime (1/4 inch). Common entry points include gaps around pipes, cracks in foundations, garage doors, and spaces under exterior doors.
How many mice are in my house?
If you see one mouse, there are likely 10-20 more hidden in walls and ceilings. Mice reproduce rapidly — a single pair can produce over 60 offspring per year.
What is the best way to get rid of mice?
Professional exclusion combined with trapping is most effective. Sealing entry points prevents new mice from entering, while strategic trapping eliminates the existing population.
