“Mice can begin breeding after just 2 – 3 weeks of their life”

Many people assume mice only pose a problem during winter only . But they operate on properties and business premises throughout the year In Manchester Stockport Cheshire. Field mice, house mice and yellow necked field mice are the most common types found in UK homes and properties. They are mobile creatures, able to jump up to 18 inches, keen foragers, inquisitive, and can find their way into almost any building by burrowing inside walls, floorboards and furnishings. For businesses, they present a grave image problem, with one sighting of a mouse harming the reputation of any commercial enterprise and putting off customers. Like rats, mice also carry diseases that are particularly problematic around food preparation areas, giving a real headache to catering businesses.

The solution

We use skilled professionals with advanced mice control equipment and techniques, drawing on a wealth of experience. Deploying thermal imaging technology, sniffer dogs and snake eye cameras, a professional is the most effective way to safely and discretely remove mice from a property. An investigation and removal process typically requires the following steps:

• Locating the root of the infestation
• Removing the nest and its mice
• Check ups on the property until the problem is fully resolved

Dangers & signs of infestation

These diseases are contagious enough to be transmitted through skin contact, inhalation and consumption of contaminated substances. Mice often carry the following diseases:

• Salmonella
• Leptospirosis
• Hantavirus
• Lyme disease

House Mouse: Summary facts

The house mouse has a unique musky smell which can be the first indicator they are nearby, but they can be easily recognised by their large ears and eyes set in a relatively small head, and a long tail (as long as rest of the body and head put together).They can sometimes be confused for young brown rats but they will have small ears/eyes. House mice tend to be the same colour all over – normally brown or light grey, but fur colour does vary and can even appear very dark. Whilst mainly active at night, they can be seen during the day, especially if they are feeding a litter or are well established in the environment and food supplies are under pressure. Their agility is impressive – a house mouse can run up vertical surfaces with minimal texture, and along horizontal cables. A true acrobat and can jump from the floor onto a flat surface. In fact they can jump 30 cm straight into the air (in human terms, jump onto the roof of a house!).  Down isn’t a problem either as a mouse can jump down twelve foot safely (a human jumping off a ten storey building without injury).  So where do they get the energy from?

Mice will eat anything, but anything of a seed-like or grain natures are particular favourites, along with sweet items which smell particularly tasty. A fully grown mouse needs a minimum of 3g of food and 3ml of water to survive, and even with a full tummy an adult mouse will only weigh around 30 grams. Given a plentiful supply of food they will still forage and hide extra for future sustenance. Most of their water comes from the food itself so even with water supply cut off, mice are adept at survival.  Did you know a mouse can even go for a longer time without drinking than camels?  However, it does mean their bladders are poorly trained, so droplets of urine will be all around areas the mice inhabit.

What goes in must come out – found shiny black grains of rice lying about? These are recent faeces of a house mouse!  If these small grains of rice are dull black, the good news is the droppings are older in origin.

Mice typically gnaw small, clean holes about 3-4 centimetres in diameter, however if a biro pen can fit in a hole so can a house mouse! While they can nest outside in ground burrows or general rubbish, they use soft materials for their nests such as insulation, furniture stuffing or paper.  Common sites for nests include inside furniture or appliances, drawers or boxes, even inside ceiling voids or cavity walls.

Nice comfortable nests, and a food supply, are perfect breeding grounds, and it’s no surprise mice numbers multiply exponentially. A mouse can have as many as 8 litters in a year, with anything from 4 to 16 young in each.  Factor in each new born mouse becomes sexually mature by the time it is 12 weeks old, and you can understand why prompt action is crucial to get your unwanted furry visitors under control.

If you see a mouse, call us out, as there are likely to be many more mice you can’t see in the building.
