Mice Pest Control Clitheroe and Ribble Valley

Mice Removal Clitheroe & Ribble Valley

While mice may not carry the same reputation as rats, they can still cause extensive damage to your property and pose serious health risks. Their flexible skeletons allow them to squeeze through gaps as small as 5mm, making homes vulnerable to invasion.

If you notice a mouse or suspect an infestation, it is vital to act quickly. Mice spread diseases such as Salmonella, Listeria, and Hantavirus through their urine, which they use to mark territory. Additionally, their gnawing habits can damage insulation, pipes, and electrical wiring, creating safety concerns.

    Causes of Mice Infestations

    Mice are intelligent creatures that seek food, water, and shelter, making homes in Ribble Valley an attractive target. Common causes of mouse infestations include:

    • Entry Points: Mice can fit through tiny gaps, cracks, or damaged areas in walls, floors, doors, and windows.
    • Food and Water: Easily accessible food such as crumbs, spills, open pantry items, and poorly managed rubbish attract mice.
    • Shelter: Mice prefer safe, undisturbed areas for nesting, such as storage spaces, attics, and cluttered areas.

    Signs of a Mice Infestation

    Early detection of a mouse infestation is crucial for effective control. Look out for these signs:

    • Droppings: Small, black droppings resembling grains of rice, often found near baseboards, cabinets, and food sources.
    • Gnaw Marks: Evidence of chewing on furniture, food packaging, wires, and structural materials.
    • Scratching Noises: Mice are active at night, so you may hear scratching in walls, ceilings, or attics.
    • Nests and Nesting Materials: Mice create nests using shredded paper, insulation, fabric, and other soft materials. These are often hidden behind appliances or in storage areas.

    Mouse Infestation Treatment

    Mice generally enter properties at ground level, unlike rats that may come through sewers. Identifying the type of mouse is critical for determining the appropriate treatment:

    • House Mice: These are particularly destructive and can create a strong, unpleasant odour in kitchens.
    • Field/Wood Mice: These are more likely to re-enter the natural food chain, requiring careful handling to avoid secondary poisoning.

    Treatment methods vary depending on factors such as the extent of the infestation, property type, external risk factors, and potential repercussions.
