The At Ease Approach To Total Mouse Control And Exclusion
Over the years, we have found that families and business owners rank mice right at the top when it comes to pests that are most resistant to do-it-yourself methods. Mice are quite literally breeding machines and are persistent in their search for food and shelter. At Ease Pest Solutions has developed a thorough and precise professional system over the years that guarantees the permanent removal and exclusion of mice.

The Basics Of Mouse Biology
Mice begin breeding only 35 to 50 days after being born and have an average gestation period of only about 20 days. Most mice will average litters of 10 to 12 individuals with suitable breeding conditions. If a mouse family finds a safe place to breed with available food and water, their numbers will increase with fantastic speed. Female mice breed in all seasons, and an ordinary female mouse can produce between 5 and 10 litters in a calendar year. 

Mice have adapted throughout human history to living close to humans in order to enjoy sharing food sources and shelter. Because they are so popular as a food source for many kinds of predatory animals, mice must breed quickly to maintain their population numbers. Individuals can live up to 2 to 3 years. Mice are highly adaptive, and if they find a reliable source of food, they will return to the source daily. Mice will eat virtually any food that humans eat and will gnaw and chew quickly through paper and other thin materials where food or waste is kept.

Mice Present Multiple Threats To Human Health
Mice contaminate human food supplies by direct contact and through their droppings. They also contaminate building materials, insulation, clothing, and different types of stored materials through their urine and droppings. Mice additionally carry other pests such as lice, fleas, and ticks, which afflict people and pets.

Mice carry and transmit several diseases harmful to humans, including: 

Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS). This viral respiratory disease is a severe threat to human life. The virus causing HPS is both airborne and transmitted through contact with mouse urine and droppings. HPS typically presents with flu-like symptoms that progress to serious respiratory disease and pneumonia.

Leptospirosis. This bacterial disease affects both humans and domestic pets. Without proper treatment, Leptospirosis can cause organ failure, brain and nervous system injury, respiratory disease, and pneumonia.

Lassa Fever. This viral infection causes symptoms ranging from mild fever, weakness, and headache to significant respiratory distress and hearing loss. In severe outbreaks in West Africa, mortality rates have ranged around 20%.

The Comprehensive At Ease Mice Exclusion Plan
Our mouse control methods focus on exclusion as the key goal for all buildings and outside structures. Random snap-trapping may kill individual mice, but if the pathway that mice use to enter your building is not controlled, new mice will enter as soon as existing mice are killed. Mice also learn quickly to avoid poisons, which often end up only serving as an environmental hazard. Using randomly placed traps and poisons leads to a high-maintenance, low-result process for most homeowners and businesses. Our professional methods instead use a scientific and experience-based approach to getting rid of the mice that are already on your property and completely excluding future infestation.

We begin with a thorough visual inspection of your property to find all potential exterior entry points for mice. Our experienced team knows exactly what to look for and how to detect the weak points that mice exploit to get inside. The tiniest gap or hole is often enough for a mouse to use, and we will provide you with a plan following our inspection to close up access points and to remediate structures or add exclusionary mesh or solid materials that will prevent outside entry permanently.

To effectively eliminate existing mice and to also determine pathways that mice are using to get inside your property, we use our inspection to guide us in the placement of baiting systems in strategic locations. Rather than using a poison that will often drive mice away, our baiting systems attract existing mice. If a follow-up is needed, we can then detect the presence of mice through their urine and the footsteps they track with the use of professional black light equipment. Using this technology to track mice precisely and efficiently, and safely trap mice that are indoors while locating their entry points from the outdoors, is a major component of the plan.
