Reasons why mice build nests in your home

Warm shelter

Your home presents a warm shelter which is not only warm but also well protected against predators. Components of your home like basement, attic, outhouses, roof, storage room, and household items that you dump in a corner, garage and barns make ideal hiding place where you don’t go often. These are covered places where foul weather does not enter and mice like the musty darkness of these places as they offer safe haven.

Nesting material

Your home offers nesting materials in plenty. Mice build nests using an array of material like depending on what type of mice have invaded your home interior and exterior. Usually mice use leaves, twigs, grass, and barks of trees, but when they build homes inside your property they will use spongy materials ripped out from sofa, carpet, shredded newspaper, wood fiber gnawed out of furniture, cotton, and other soft materials found in your home. Easy availability of these items makes your home favorite for mice.

Food

This is the most important item that mice seek in your home. Food is available in plenty in your home in the form of leftovers and stored food items. Mice venture out of their holes in the night and scavenge for food in the kitchen counter, dining table, under the sink, food shelves, under the counter cabinet, sack of grains from the barn, bird seeds, pet food, etc. mice have sharp incisor teeth that they use with devastating effect and rip packages and sacks to scatter cereals, buttery items, meat, and readymade food stuff.

Rodents like mice and rats are small creatures and are very agile and swift, so it is difficult for you to catch.  In order to build nests they will chew and rip your wardrobe, get in to table drawer, invade storeroom where you have left unused materials, newspaper, documents, cardboard boxes, pile of knickknacks and cur them in ribbons and carry to the hole or crevice they have found for nest building. If you sum up the damage caused by mice due to their activities they are the worst enemies of human and must get rid type of rodents. Another annoying factor about mice is that they have to nibble, chew, or gnaw on items that may be your wooden furniture, door or window frame, wooden boxes, clothing, wires and insulations, switch panels, and anything that come across. Their teeth are constantly on growth mode and to stop them from growing longer they do this compulsively. This makes them dangerous because their teeth never stop growing and keep mice on the edge compelling them to sink their teeth in to something.
