A mice infestation can be one of the worst afflictions to happen to any property. Whether it’s your home, office or business, it’s important to be able to spot the signs before the problem gets any worse. Many people try to solve the problem themselves by purchasing traps but wind up frustrated when they don’t catch anything. Even worse, they will catch one or two, then declare the problem solved. It is important to remember when there is one there is probably more. Weeks later they’ll still be finding mouse droppings and chew marks on their belongings. When you first see signs of a mice infestation, it’s best to call in the professionals before the problem gets out of hand.

Just this month a local market had to shut down because of a mouse infestation. Health officials visited the store after customers complained that they found mouse droppings throughout the store and a bag of bread that had been bitten through. Although workers of this market agreed to address the problems, health officials found there had been no improvement. After performing a thorough check, they found several dead mice within stockrooms, carcasses stuck to glue traps, and droppings on the bread shelves. The market was closed immediately.

Ignoring the problem only made things worse for the market in question. Shutting down the store was a necessary precaution to make sure that foods and products were not infested with mice droppings. This just shows how important it is to take care of a mice infestation before it gets out of hand.  This particular occurrence was at a local business but it can happen anywhere.  If you suspect your home or business may be infested with mice, contact an A&M Pest Control specialist for an inspection.
