How to deal with mice infestations

Here at Active Pest Solutions, we find some questions come up time after time when clients first contact us:

  • What is the fastest way to get rid of mice?
  • How do I get rid of mice in the walls of my house?
  • What’s the best way to catch a mouse in my home?

As the mice deterrent experts across Fife, Perth & Kinross and Central Scotland, we’ve got years of experience to help us answer those questions with confidence… and help you put in place a mice deterrent plan that can protect your property from future attacks.

Getting rid of mice – either in the home, or mice that have gained access to cavities in the walls of your home – is usually a quick and straightforward process, and some simple steps using cheap but effective mouse-proofing techniques should prevent any repetition

Damage caused to pipes and insulation by mice

These questions aren’t ones you should leave unanswered for long… This picture, for example, shows you the sort of damage a mouse can do to plastic pipes in your home if left to its own devices for just a few days.

And apart from direct damage, mice also carry diseases, so you don’t want them or their droppings to cause you or your family any more of a problem.

So how do you get rid of mice in your home for good?

Hire someone who knows how to catch mice professionally

We will inspect your home and identify the places where the mice are gaining access. We can then deal with the immediate infestation, in a way that takes account of the safety of children or pets in your home, and then we can install proven measures to stop the mice from returning.

Preventative measures for mice ingress

This picture shows some of the simple measures we can make to entry points around your home to prevent even the smallest mouse from getting through the holes in your air bricks, for example.

Once you’ve called us, we can quickly control both problems – the infestation and longer-term protection.

Having eradicated your invaders we will set about mouse-proofing all the obvious rodent entry points, and the places only an expert eye will spot.

Remember, if a mouse, or several mice, have found their way inside your home then they will come and go, but it is highly unlikely that they will ever move their nests back outside. If mice are cosy and have plenty of food and water in your home, they will not want to leave.

You must take action.

You can read customer testimonials about the work we carry out here and feel reassured that we are members of the Fife Trusted Trader Scheme – the only official trader scheme in Fife that is vetted by Trading Standards, and the only scheme that is backed by both Fife Council and Police Scotland.

So, knowing that any leak, or fire, or blockage that the mice cause is going to be expensive to repair, we understand that no-one wants to remain the victim of the kind of problems caused by the mice in our example above.

If you believe a mice infestation has arrived at your home, get in touch with Active Pest Solutions now, and ask us anything about our quality-assured mouse control service. But we think the question you’ll really want to be answered is: “how soon can we get to you?”

I phoned them on Sunday and came out early on Monday. Very pleasant. Did what was necessary to get rid of wasps and would appear by the evening that it has been successful. Very polite and affordable as well! I would thoroughly recommend.
