Natural Ways To Repel Mice In Orlando

Did you know: a female mouse can have up to 150 babies in one year? That’s a lot of mice! A couple of mice in your house may not seem like a big deal, but if left unchecked, mouse populations can grow exponentially. Many Orlando residents will experience a mouse problem at some point, so it’s important to know the signs of mice, ways to prevent them, and how Orlando pest control professionals can help. This guide will help prepare you for any mouse problems you may have, now or in the future.

Signs Of Mice In Your Home

Being able to identify a mouse problem is the first step towards protecting your property from mice. Mice are small, furry rodents that are typically dusty gray or brown. They have large ears, pointed muzzles, and long tails. They can be distinguished from rats by their much smaller size and rounder bodies. Mice in homes are often found in secluded areas such as attics, basements, closets, and even inside walls.

Due to their elusive nature, it can be tricky to catch sight of these rodents. However, there are other signs of mice that can indicate their presence. You may come across small, rod-shaped mouse droppings or smell a foul odor from their urine. Mice gnaw on boxes and other items and leave oily rub marks on walls from their fur. They also create nests made from insulation, paper, and other materials that you may discover in their hiding places.

Strange noises coming from the walls or attic is another telltale sign of a mouse infestation. The presence of one or more of these signs likely means that your home has mice, but a professional inspection can confirm this.

The Problems Mice Can Cause In Your Home

The problem with mice in homes is twofold: they damage property and cause health issues. Mice may be small, but they can do a lot of damage to your home. They use their sharp teeth to chew through items in search of food, water, and nesting materials. Mice will often damage wood, drywall, and storage or food containers. They have even been known to start fires when they gnaw on electrical wiring. Property damage from mice can be dangerous and result in expensive repairs.

Even worse, mice can put your health at risk. Common species of home-invading mice are carriers of bacteria and diseases. House mice, the most common type found in homes, can spread leptospirosis, salmonellosis, tularemia, and lymphocytic choriomeningitis. White-footed mice and deer mice carry a potentially deadly disease called hantavirus. Mice can also trigger allergies and asthma attacks and may bring fleas and other parasites into your home.

Mice are not merely a nuisance that can be overlooked. They are potentially dangerous pests. Continue reading to learn about the best pest control for mice in Orlando.
