FAQ

Mouse Control questions

Answers to common questions we hear from homeowners, tenants and businesses.

Will traps alone solve a mouse problem?

Traps can reduce activity, but recurring problems often continue when entry points, food sources or nesting conditions remain.

How are mice getting into the building?

Mice can use small gaps around doors, utility lines, vents, foundations and exterior finishes. An inspection focuses on likely entry routes as well as indoor activity.

Why do I keep finding droppings after trapping mice?

Droppings may remain from earlier activity, so cleaning and monitoring help distinguish old evidence from fresh activity. Continued new signs can indicate that mice are still present.

Are mouse bait stations safe around children and pets?

Professional stations are selected and placed to reduce access to the bait, but they still must be installed, secured and serviced correctly. Children and pets should never handle or move pest-control equipment.

How do I know when the mouse problem is under control?

The absence of fresh droppings, new gnawing, trap activity and other signs over a monitoring period is more useful than judging the problem from one quiet night.

When should mouse entry holes be sealed?

Exclusion is an important part of long-term control, but timing can depend on the active routes and treatment plan. The goal is to close access without trapping rodents in inaccessible areas.
