The house mouse is the most common rodent pest in most parts of the world.
It can breed rapidly and adapt quickly to changing conditions.
Habits
House mice can breed throughout the year and can share nests.
Habitat
House mice live in structures, but they can live outdoors.
Threats
Micro droplets of mouse urine can cause allergies in children. Mice can
also bring fleas, mites, ticks and lice into your home.
Prevention
To keep mice and other rodents out, make sure all holes of larger diameter
than a pencil are sealed. Mice can squeeze through spaces as small as
a nickel. Seal any cracks and voids. Don't overlook proper drainage at
the foundation and always install gutters or diverts which will channel
water away from the building.
