Mice find their way into Springfield kitchens, pantries and wall cavities through gaps far smaller than most people expect, often around pipe entries under the sink or a door that does not seal tight at the bottom. Droppings in cupboards, a faint smell near the pantry, or chewed packaging are usually the first sign a homeowner notices.
The crew we book works through the kitchen, roof space and any wall cavities where mice are likely moving, placing control out of reach of kids and pets and checking the outside of the house for the gaps letting them in. Newer estate homes in Springfield can still get mice through gaps left around service pipes during the build, so it is not only older houses that see this problem.
- An inside check of the kitchen, pantry and skirting for droppings and entry points
- Control placed in spots kids and pets cannot get to
- A look at the outside of the house for gaps around pipes, electricity boxes and doors
- Simple advice on food storage that makes the kitchen less appealing to mice
Mice are small enough to use gaps around door seals, weep holes and the base of a garage roller door that most homeowners never think to check, as well as the usual roof and pipe entry points. In Springfield the crew checks all of these areas on a typical visit, since missing even one gap can mean mice are back in the kitchen again before long.
Mice breed quickly, so a small problem in a Springfield kitchen can turn into a bigger one inside a few weeks if it is left. Call 07 3543 7767 and we will get a local crew booked to sort it out.
