Mice are strange creatures though they are practically blind they can go through garbage, sewer and dumpsters meticulously and scavenge for food while disappearing at the first sound of your faint footfall. However studies shows that mice don’t go far away from their nest and are always within the periphery of 100-150 feet. If you sight them in your home it is very likely that they are already there and are having a rollicking time in your house. It takes just two or three weeks for them to double in number so it is better to get rid of them before it is too late and call BBPP, the best mouse exterminator Kleinburg and for nearby towns.

- Cut off food supply
Mice can eat almost anything and everything and that would include grains, nuts, seeds, meat, cereals, pet food, fruits, candies and other such goodies. Mice don’t like to live in places where food is not available, so cut off the supply by removing them from the open. This is the first step you take to oust mice from your home and it always works. Keep trash can tightly lidded and take away trash every day. Do not keep the above items in the shed and mice being curios creatures will always visit the source 20-30 times a night and when they don’t find food they will move to another location.
- Clear mice nests
Destroying their nest is an excellent way of stopping them from populating your home. if they have their nests in the shed they will go back every night to produce more and continue to cause damage. Remove their nests; remove trash, clutter, unused boxes, brushes, rock piles containers, old boards, firewood, newspaper, plastic bags and other unwanted junk you had dumped. This way they won’t have any hiding place and quietly move away to where they will find more junk.
- Cut off entry routes
Clearing away nests and clearing clutter is fine but you must ensure that the hard work you have done is not wasted by your carelessness. If they went away they could also come back, if not the same group some other group. Close all the entry points and find holes, crevices, gaps, crawl spaces, sewer lines that give access to mice and seal them with material like caulk, steel wire ball, cement etc. check drains closely and seal entry points and seal small gaps and holes with cement. You have to be thorough in this because entry points can appear from anywhere in your house. If you have a tree leaning on your shed make sure to cut off the branches that are touching the roof. You must keep watch on all these entry points because they could reopen magically. If it happens reseal it!
