As the weather begins to cool, mice will naturally want to move into your house seeking shelter. They will also find excellent sources of food, and a comfortable place to breed. Just a few mice in September can turn into more than 50 by spring—and not all of them will leave with the cold.
To prevent this mouse invasion, you have to take careful steps to keep mice out. First, make sure air vents, such as cold air intakes, have secure grates on them to prevent the entry of mice.
Next, check for doors that never quite close, such as a garage door, broken basement window, or others.
Finally, go around sealing any miscellaneous cracks in the walls that you find. Remember, mice can squeeze through spaces as narrow as a ¼ of an inch.
If you want help identifying trouble spots, the experts at Animal Pest Control Services can advise you about the best defensive plan to keep them out this fall.

Ronnie came out and completed an inspection in our home. He gave us good news that we did not have an insect problem. He was very knowledgeable, courteous and professional. Although they typically do not deal with our particular problem, they were willing to do an inspection and point us in the right direction. The gal in the office went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Thank you!
