Mice eat Your Wires

One of the most frustrating things about Mice or a Rodent Infestation, is the fact they like to eat through wiring! Imagine, you have a nice new home, and your lights do not work in one room. It just goes out one day. And, there are some flies and evidence of mouse poop near the room.

Here are some diy pest control tips for you to consider:

You can use a series of electronic pest control devices in this case. Do the round-up, and get rid of them by placing the devices in this room, and then turn the lights on, and leave them on if you can, at night. The combination of noise, and light is going to make them batty!

Then, they will decide to evacuate to other parts of the home. So, pick a spot on the same level as the problem room, and place traps there. In essence what you are doing is making the mice move to the happier spot further away from the room they were living, and supplying food in un-set traps. The migration, and the food, will get them all in one spot, and then on the 5th night, set those traps!

This weird combination of the ultrasonic devices, the lights, and the baited traps, really works. Sometimes, you can get the entire group in a few nights. Continue to vary your baiting and setting of traps until you get no more evidence from the mice, or produce any dead mice.

You now need to remove access to your home, and that requires preventative steps of caulk. That is a great story in itself!
