Mice Control

There are 3 predominant species that we see in the upper midwest.

The House Mouse is commonly a small grayish brown to almost black rodent that infests homes. It commonly is seen in kitchens, pantries and throughout the house and leaves its droppings wherever it frequents. If you have food items that are being chewed into, this is probably the culprit.

The Deer Mouse is generally a lighter brown color and has a distinct 2 tone appearance with the belly fur being white.. It is more of a solitary mouse and will use the walls of our homes as harborage. Hearing noise in walls and ceilings but not seeing any mice inside the house usually leads us to the conclusion it is the Deer Mouse or his cousin the ?White Footed Mouse.?

The Vole or more correctly called the Meadow Mouse is a larger, blunt nosed, short tailed rodent that will not infest homes but is a significant turf pest with the capacity to enter structures if by accident. Not to be confused with a Mole, the Vole runs and feeds above ground. Girdling of trees or troughs in your grass in the spring after snow melt is a sign you have these.
