As the old song went ' A little mouse with clogs on!' If you get a mouse one of these little creatures in your loft or cavity wall, it really can sound like he, she, and their little ones if you're unlucky enough to have a family of them, it really can sound like they are wearing clogs!
PDF (Pest Doctor Fact) :
Did you know that a Mouse only needs as little as 3ml of water to survive a day? They can get their entire days water requirement just from eating moisture rich food.
The thing is you mention rats and people say Ugh. You say mice and people may say aah! But one or two mice can very quickly turn into a major problem as their reproduction cycle is rapid and if that’s not bad enough, once they are in your home they can adapt to eat almost anything without ever leaving home ( Well your home actually!)
Now that’s a scary thought!
We sometimes get calls to go to homes and when we ask the question ‘How long have you had this problem for’ it’s amazing that people say they’ve heard the noises for months and the mice activity ie the mouse droppings shows this! What may have been one little cheeky chappy staying at your home, turns into a whole family with mum, little ones, in-laws and in fact a whole village!
Remember if you hear noises in your loft or cavity wall don’t ignore them. Act fast to stop the problem getting bigger and harder to treat
