How to get rid of mice in your house – it starts with sealing holes up

Mice will not be living in your kitchen, but merely raiding it at night. If you spot one at night, you are both likely to get a fright. The mouse will quickly disappear, making you question what you have just seen. To successfully treat them yourself you must limit their access. Mice are very flexible and skilled at squeezing under doors.

Garages are an easy access point as the large gaps around roller doors are very inviting. It is extremely hard to stop them accessing your garage. The best thing you can do is to seal up under the garage access door.

Another favourite access point is around the numerous pipe fittings that enter your home. For example, gas pipes coming through the walls are typical access points for your kitchen. Living in the roof void, gas lines provide a freeway access to your cupboards. Many frustrated clients ring Jim’s Pest Control because they just cannot get on top of their rodent problems.
