Expert Mice & Rodent Removal Services in Upper Arlington, Ohio and Surrounding Areas

When the weather starts to get cold, mice and other rodents decide to move indoors to nest and find food. This is when many homeowners notice that they suddenly have a pest problem. Mice and rodents often chew wood and insulation to make their nests, and they might also damage the electrical wiring in your walls. A rodent population in your home can expose your family to disease, as well as cause the risk of fire.

If you have noticed even a single mouse or rat, you need to reach out to the team at Critter Removal right away. The sooner that we can get to work on resolving your pest problem, the better.

Distribution: Mice can get into buildings through cracks that are as small as ¼ inch in size. This means that even the smallest gap in your siding or near your foundation can provide them access to your home. Mice will often build nests in the walls that are closest to food sources. This means that kitchen walls and areas where there might be other food sources are where we will begin our search for your unwanted rodent friends.

Rodent nests are often about 4-6 inches in diameter. They are formed like loose balls and are typically tucked between walls or in other small spaces. Mice like to nest in close proximity to food sources and will often avoid traveling any further than 10-50 feet from their nests.

Mice also have rather poor eyesight, which is why you will often see them moving along walls in your home, using their whiskers to track their location. If a mouse notices your presence, they will typically hold still, hoping that you will not see them. If you are silent, they might not even see you or know that you are there.
