To effectively combat misinformation and confusion, RAM pest Control has put together a shortlist of FAQs for curious homeowners.
RAM Pest Control’s House Mouse FAQ
The following questions are some of the most common queries we get here at RAM Pest Control. Get your pressing questions answered below, and find the tips you need to continue protecting your Vail home from infestation all year long.
Can Mice Climb? Are They Able To Climb Walls?
Mice have been known to jump up to a foot in height and climb over 13 inches up a smooth, featureless wall. Although they are unable to crawl like ants or roaches, mice are perfectly capable of climbing around your home’s smooth interior.
Can Mice See In The Dark?
Although many types of pests are unaffected by light levels, rodents (including mice) have very poor eyesight and are unable to see well in the dark. However, the poor vision of your local house mouse will not keep it from infiltrating your pantry, cupboard, or closet, so remain vigilant.
What Attracts Mice Into The House?
Like many other types of Vail pests, mice require a minimum of three factors to survive: food, water, and shelter. While you might not feel as though your home is offering refuge to mice, it is never fully immune from the risk of a rodent infestation, no matter how secure you feel.
How Do I Keep Mice Out Of My House?
The best form of pest control is keeping mice out of the house in the first place: begin by mitigating access to food sources, dirty dishes, and garbage cans. Run dehumidifiers in the home to reduce air moisture, and repair leaky pipes and clogged drains that could be causing water buildup. Finally, reduce the number of entry points around the home by sealing gaps, caulking cracks, and replacing torn window screens.
Does One Mouse Mean I Have An Infestation?
Unfortunately, spotting a single mouse in the home is often the first sign of a full-blown infestation developing out of sight. Mice reproduce quickly and wean young even quicker, which allows them to take over a house with relative ease.
How Do I Get Rid Of Mice?
It’s easy to assume that rodent infestations will go away on their own, or weaken slightly over time, but nothing could be further from the truth. If your home is facing a mouse infestation of any kind, it will be imperative to contact professional pest control agents immediately.
