Mice are a nuisance and need to be exterminated if you want to live safely and peacefully. It is important to remove mice from your home premises because you and your family members’ health is at stake, and so are your food items and assets. Mice when allowed to grow unchecked can be a big threat as their increased numbers will ransack your home, waste food material, contaminate surfaces, damage structures, furniture, and wiring. Rodents are unpleasant to live with as they emit musty odor which is bad news for nostrils and their screeching and scurrying while you sleep. Your best chances to get relief from these are to call BBPP, the most experienced mouse exterminator Kleinburg and remove mice infestation from your home.
Can mouse trap work?
Mouse traps are simple and wood based mouse catchers that are quite effective when some juicy bait is placed in them. You can get it from any hardware store and deploy them in strategic places of home. You should also place highly alluring baits like Cheese, peanut butter, dried fruit or chocolate candy inside the trap as these are favorite snacks for mice. Will it work? Yes, of course it will, and you will soon hear the distinctive “snap” sound and find a captive mouse inside the trap.
Where to place traps?
You must always deploy traps behind objects such as fridge, cabinet or shelves or close to the wall where you will find rodent passage created by constant running. The snap trap must be placed in such way that it is directly in the path that is used by rats and mice. Mouse treads marks or impression will reveal the path and you can place the trap right over it. You can also place traps over kitchen shelves, storage cabinets and ledges. You must place traps in places where mice frequent day in day out. While searching food mice may not venture more than 10-12 feet from its nest or food storage so keep traps at least with 10 feet gap. Another trick you can use is to keep traps unset so mouse takes the bait successfully. Emboldened by the success mice will venture again and get caught thus increasing the chances of more captures.
Glue boards are an alternative which will catch the mouse and keep it there when the rodent attempts to tread over them. It acts like flypaper and you can place many glue boards side by side to increase the chance of capture. However effectiveness of glue boards decrease in dusty areas and the same happens when placed in extreme temperature.
Traps can be effective if the infestation is of smaller size such as half a dozen mice. Failure rate creeps up when the mice infestation is in the proportion of a colony consisting of 50-100 mice or rats. In such cases you are advised to seek professional intervention such as BBPP, the most experienced pest control Kleinburg and remove properly and safely.
