One mouse can quickly swell to many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to control the population, and mouse traps are the most effective method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The size of the infestation will determine the number of traps, the types of traps, and the bait to use. Infestation size also determines the process&#8217;s length, which can range from a few days to weeks. With a large colony, other control measures, including tamper-resistant bait stations, may be required around the perimeter of your structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mouse Exclusions to Keep Mice Out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Without professional exclusion and prevention techniques from Critter Control, you are vulnerable to future rodent infestations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mice can squeeze through gaps the diameter of a pencil<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mice can gnaw through materials like wood, siding, aluminum, and caulk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you successfully remove every mouse &nbsp;in your home but do not implement exclusion and prevention techniques, your home is at risk for future rodent &nbsp;activity.<\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"cta-banner-wrapper row  alt orange \">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col-xs-12\">\n        <div class=\"cta-banner\">\n          <div class=\"cta-banner-content\"><\/div>\n          <a\n                        href=\"tel:\"\n                        class=\"cta-phone-link\">\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\">\n              <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/wp-content\/themes\/crittercontrol-2.0\/resources\/img\/svg-legend.svg#icon-phone\"><\/use>\n            <\/svg>\n            <div class=\"cta-phone-link-wrapper\">\n              <div class=\"cta-phone-link-num\">\n                                  <span>573-314-4125<\/span>\n                              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"cta-phone-link-text\">(No Cats &#038; Dogs)<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exclusion-techniques-for-mouse-control\">Exclusion Techniques for Mouse Control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We identify and seal all quarter-inch gaps with durable material mice can\u2019t get through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chimney caps that prevent wildlife from nesting or falling inside<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sealing entry points in roof, soffit, and fascia spaces and intersections<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plumbing, roof, and bathroom exhaust vent covers to keep animals out<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repairing and reinforcing holes in house siding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Installing durable rodent walls around the base of porches and decks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ongoing Mouse Control Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mice are a persistent pest that can try to reenter your home.
