How to prevent mice from getting into your house

Here are some ways to prevent mice from getting into your house:

1. Seal all possible entry points: Mice can enter through small gaps or cracks in walls, floors, and foundations. Seal these entry points with caulk, expanding foam, or steel wool.
   
2. Keep your home clean: Mice are attracted to food sources, so keeping your home clean and free of crumbs and spills can help deter them. Store food in sealed containers, and clean up any spills or crumbs immediately.
   
3. Remove clutter: Clutter can provide mice with hiding places and nesting areas, so remove any unnecessary clutter in your home.
   
4. Use mouse repellents: Natural mouse repellents, such as peppermint oil, can help keep mice away. You can also use ultrasonic repellents or electronic traps.
   
5. Keep outdoor areas clean: Keep outdoor areas, such as garages and sheds, clean and clutter-free. Mice can hide in cluttered areas and then find their way into your home.
   
6. Use mouse traps: Traditional mouse traps can be an effective way to catch mice. Place them in areas where you've seen signs of mice, such as droppings or chew marks.
   
7. Get a cat: Cats are natural predators of mice, and having a cat in your home can help keep mice away.
   

By taking these steps, you can help prevent mice from getting into your home and causing damage or health problems.  Call your local pest control company if you have any questions
