\"\"<\/a>For some people, having a New Jersey mice infestation<\/a> in your home might not seem like it is such a big deal.\u00a0 Being nocturnal creatures, mice are rarely seen or heard, and the average homeowner typically realizes that they have a mice infestation problem in their home when they find blackish oval sized small pellets in areas where mice travel or congregate.\u00a0 The mice that seek refuge in walls, attics, crawl spaces, and basements are more than just a nuisance though.\u00a0 These critters are particularly dangerous because they carry with them serious health threats that are harmful to humans.<\/p>\n

Despite their pet store looking appearance, having a NJ mice infestation<\/a> can expose your family and friends to Hantavirus, which then leads to a disease called Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS).\u00a0 It should be noted that in those that have contracted HPS, over 50% have experienced fatal results.<\/p>\n

Asthma is a serious health threat in the United States which affects nearly 15 million people from coast to coast.\u00a0 Of the 15 million affected by asthma, one third is children.\u00a0 According to studies, asthma is the leading cause of chronic illnesses in children, and it is the third leading cause for children to be hospitalized in the United States.\u00a0 A recent study by researchers at Johns Hopkins Children\u2019s Center, and published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, found that mouse urine contains allergy causing substances that become airborne.\u00a0 Once the mouse allergen becomes airborne they are very problematic and have been found to be the leading cause for asthma attacks in children.<\/p>\n

In the John\u2019s Hopkins study, 25% of the random homes that were tested contained levels of mouse urine allergens that were high enough to cause problems for a person who suffers from asthma.\u00a0 Because asthma can be life threatening, this should a concern for all homeowners who have a mice infestation problem.<\/p>\n

The best way to protect your family and friends from the dangers from having a NJ mice infestation<\/a> in your home is to seal all cracks, crevices, and holes to keep mice out of your home.\u00a0 Make certain that your home is not an \u201call night buffet\u201d for mice by keeping food locked up tight, and call a licensed NJ pest control specialist<\/a> who knows how to provide proper treatment for mice if you become infested!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
