Warming Up

Like most mammals mice are not fond of the cold. During the winter months or on chilly nights mice search for a shelter to keep warm. Their ability to squeeze into spaces as small as 0.6mm allows them to enter many buildings, homes, and other structures. Even a small crack in the wall or underneath your deck could let a family of mice in. Once inside their daily routine could cause a ton of structural damage, as well as create health concerns. Mice teeth grow constantly at a rate of 0.3mm a day, and they have to chew and gnaw on materials in order to keep them ground down. In your home these materials may be walls, flooring, wires, etc. Mice are also carriers of many diseases which can be a threat in itself. If you find mice in your home call Guardian Wildlife Services​.
