10 Easy Tips to Prevent Mice and Rodents Inside the Home - Part One

Many homeowners experience finding mice or rodents in their home at some time or another. Whether in the kitchen, attic, basement or dining room – a rodent sighting or signs of their presence is unsettling.  Unfortunately, these resourceful creatures can enter a building or home through the tiniest opening or crack.

In this blog posting and the next one, I will share with you some tips I read in a  recent article by Missy Henriksen of PestWorld.

• Install door sweeps on exterior doors and repair damaged screens. 
• Screen vents and openings to chimneys. 
• Seal cracks and holes on the outside of the home, including areas where utilities and pipes enter the home, using caulk, steel wool or a combination of both. 
• Store food in airtight containers and dispose of garbage regularly. 
• Keep attics, basements and crawl spaces well ventilated and dry.
