Young's Pest Control for Hale Mice Control

Mice. They might look cute in cartoons but if you have a mice infestation in your home it's far from funny.

Mice infestation needs dealing with quickly and the most effective way is to call in professional Hale mice control experts. That's why Young's Pest Control is here to help.

The most common mouse found in homes is the House Mouse (Mus Musculus). These mice breed very quickly. The average House Mouse can produce 4 to 15 young per litter and can have from 6 to 9 litters per year. The Field Mouse (Apodemus Sylvaticus) can also be a common pest. Whatever the breed. It is important to remember that all mice have very soft skeletons and can squeeze through the smallest of holes. Just a 6mm gap is enough for a mouse to gain access to your home. It is also worth noting that mice can climb. No areas are beyond the reach of the average mouse which is what makes mouse control so important. Once inside a property they can easily travel to all areas of the house through, for example, the cavity wall.

What damage do mice cause in the home?

- Mice can spread disease such as Lyme Disease, Salmonella and Weil's disease
- They can chew through electrical wires in your home and cause a fire hazard.
- They can create structural damage due to chewing through timber (mouse teeth never stop growing)
- Increased risk of food poisoning from food contamination.

It's easy to see why fast and effective mouse removal is vital. No-one wants to put the health and safety of their family at risk but how do you know you have mice?
