Mice in Newbury can use waterways for travel and as a food source.

Mice treatments in Newbury

You may see, hear or smell a mouse problem or other evidence such as burrowing or gnawing. Commonly heard in loft spaces they will travel in wall cavities to all parts of the house, especially areas where food is found. They often follow the routes of pipes throughout the house.

Mice are extremely adaptable, changing there behaviour to fit the environment they are in. House mice consume food meant for humans and pets. They contaminate food-preparation surfaces with their faeces, which can contain the bacterium that causes food poisoning (salmonellosis).

PESTUK will treat a mouse problem with sanitation, mouse proof construction and population reduction. The first two are useful as preventive measures. However when a mouse infestation already exists, a form of population reduction is always necessary. Reduction techniques include trapping and poisoning. PESTUK will use poison baiting as it is the quickest way to deal with a mouse infestation. The right type of bait in the right place has to be used for the whole population to feed on the bait for the treatment to succeed. The bait has to be put in the correct places, mice are territorial and if the bait is not in a mouse’s territory then it won’t take the bait.
