Getting Rid Of Mice Safely In Tucson

Even in the southwestern part of the United States, pests like mice can enter your Tucson home. If you care about your health and want to protect your property, you need a solid plan to exclude mice.

Rodents are incredibly destructive because their teeth require that they constantly chew to prevent overgrowth. This leads to gnawed walls, wires, furniture, and food packaging. If that wasn’t enough, when mice travel in and out of homes, they leave behind mouse droppings and often spread disease.

It’s critical to safely remove mice from your home and avoid contact with these pests and items they have contaminated. Dealing with a mouse infestation in your home can be frustrating and overwhelming. Have a dependable Tucson pest control expert to help eliminate mice from your home.

Types Of Rodents That Invade Tucson Homes

There are more than a few different types of mice that may invade your home in Tucson. Check to see if the Tucson rodents in your home match the following details:

• House mouse - These pests are gray with a cream or white underbelly with bodies that measure 2-1/2 to 3-3/4 inches long. Their tails add another few inches totaling five to seven inches in all.
• Deer mouse - From their nose to the tip of their tail, these rodents are between five and eight inches long and have a bi-colored tail. They have a brown coat, white feet, and a white underbelly. 
• Field mouse - There are short-tailed and long-tailed field mice, also known as wood mice. They have soft fur that is yellow or gray, and they measure between 2-1/2 and 6 inches long, not including their tail. 

As soon as you see a few mice in your home, it’s time to call pest control services for a solution. Conquistador Pest & Termite uses mouse pest control products that work fast and deter mice from infesting your Tucson home.

All The Factors That Attract Mice To Your Property

Sometimes homeowners might not realize that they are creating an environment that mice find irresistible. There are more than a few reasons why mice are interested in living in your home or around your property.

When you leave food or garbage unprotected or in a container that mice can access, you make your home a target for pests. Clutter in attics, basements, closets, and garages may provide hiding spaces and nesting material that mice are seeking.

If your home has areas where there are leaking pipes, standing water, or structural damage from moisture, mice are sure to follow. Mice know that our homes provide all of the resources they need to survive. When you have openings and cracks in your home around doors, windows, wiring, and plumbing, they allow mice to enter your home.

Remove factors in your home that make it inviting to rodent pests. And schedule pest control services for mice with Conquistador Pest & Termite throughout the year to prevent future mouse problems.
