An Unwelcome Family

Did you know that if you see one mouse, there are usually many more to follow. They tend to bring their friends along once they find a suitable place for them to hide. They also multiply really fast. That means it isn’t long before you have an entire family camping out in your basement, your attic, or worse – your kitchen.

Unreliable Traps

You’ve probably gone to the store once you were “fortunate” enough to see of one of these rodents to pick up mouse traps. While mouse traps can be effective, quite often they’re just not. Mice can easily manipulate traps to get the treat out of them, or they are often so quick the escape the trap the minute it goes off. Even if your trap does manage to tag one of them, he can make his way back into your wall, even if he’s injured. If he dies there, the smell will soon be unbearable.
