Mice are clever and they always find a way that will lead to the interiors of your home. If you conduct a closer inspection of your house you will be amazed find so many of them that you would have never imagined. Mouse being small and flexible is able to fathom any size of gaps or holes in the wall and even a hole in the size of a dime is enough for the rodent to get inside your house. One of the main entry providers is the foundational gaps that inadvertently develop over time or a weak point exploited by the rodents.

Check the perimeter
When an inspection for mice infestation is conducted the technician will check both interior and exterior areas to detect breach. It is a foregone conclusion that mice presence will found in kitchen, garage, BBQ area, attic, barn etc but by inspecting closely you could also find vulnerable points in the foundation such as gaps in the pipe line, AC conduit pipes, dryer and drainage, basement and deck. Here the chances of mice digging and making tunnels are very much there. So perimeter inspection is very much important exercise when you set about exterminating mice infestation from your home.
Why foundational gaps?
Rodents like rats and mice like living in concealed and sheltered areas. They also like places where inhabitants or residents do not venture frequently. A home foundation is one such area where you hardly visit once a day. Mice have enough time and privacy to enlarge a small gap or crevice and get into the interior and build nests inside the wall, basement etc. over the years your exterior walls and foundations develop cracks and gaps and the physical structure of a mouse is ideally suited to exploit such entry points. When they enter walls or foundations they will expand the space by gnawing and scratching the masonry to find more space and more privacy.
Pipe entry points are other vulnerable areas that can be aptly exploited by mice. Over the years masonry around pipe lines loosen and provide tiniest crevice to mouse which it accepts with glee and dig its way to your inner space. Mice and rats start from ground level and make to the upper floors. If you inspect minutely you will find out how mice have built nests in your attic and roof. Another potential entry point is a tree or tree branch closed located and touching your upper floor or roof. As you know mice are athletic and can climb, jump, and run quickly. A tree branch within easy reach of your roof is ideal pathway for the rodent to open a new entry point in to the house.
Rodent control technician will usually target these areas and place several bait stations that are exterior type. The rodent will either perish inside the trap or go back and die in the nest. Either way the exterior bait stations have proved extremely useful. This done and infestation removed it is time for you to close those invisible gaps and holes, crevices and voids with steel wool, cement, caulk and other solid material that won’t come off easily.
