What we do to treat Mice..
Set up a guaranteed program to control rodents in a building and it’s surrounding environment and advise how you can help reduce future problems.
Inspect We will carry out a survey and report our findings.
- Bait We will set up rodent bait stations at various strategic locations in and around the buildings. These rodent bait stations securely hold the bait within the station which means that secondary poisoning of non target animals are greatly reduced to almost zero.
- Traps We can set up specially designed traps where baits cannot be used.
- Tracking Powders Sometimes we may need to use rodent tracking powders.
Signs of Rodent Activity include:
- Droppings New rodent droppings are shiny and pliable and within 2-3 days become dull and hard. Mouse droppings are 3-6mm long and have pointed ends. Rat droppings are up to 12mm long and have blunted ends
- Rubmarks These are greasy smear marks and they are caused when rodents rub their fur against vertical surfaces such as walls
- Burrows Rat burrows are normally found next to waterways and buildings.
- Sounds Mice and Rats are normally heard at night and they include squeaking in the case of mice and clawing and gnawing in the case of rats.
- Nest A rodent nest is usually made of rags and paper and cardboard.
- Gnawing Mice gnaw to keep their incisors down and use wood, metal, conduit and cables in order to do this. When mice gnaw cables for instance this can expose bare wires and cause short circuits or fires.
