You may be deceived by the spotting of a solitary mouse in your kitchen or dining table. They never live alone and rest of them are somewhere near only as mouse do not venture out too far.

They usually build nests near food storage so it will not be hard for you to find their nest.

  • Very hard to stop

Mice are hard to stop from entering homes because they can get through holes that are dime sized. They have flexible bodies and can collapse them during the attempt and wriggle out quickly when they are being chased. They will get into your house by swimming across and climbing over a tree nearby and jumping on to the roof. They can get in to a wall crevice and widen it by their sharp teeth to build nests.
