Signs of Mice in Your House

Mice have flexible skeletons. Thus, they can fit into very tiny gaps. They are also very persistent and will do all they can to get food and shelter. It is therefore very important for you to be on the lookout for likely signs of a house mice infestation.

​Here are the most common.

• Strong Ammonia-like Smell

Mice urine has a strong ammonia-like smell that does not easily go away.
​

• Footprints

Mice in dusty basements can be easily identified by visible mice footprints.
​

• Dead Or Live Mice

If your house is infested with mice, you are likely to come across a dead mouse. However, if you happen to spot a mouse regularly during the day, be warned. Probably, you have a heavy mice infestation in your house. 

Droppings

Mice feces are about 3 to 8 mm long and will be scattered in random places around your house.

• Urine Pillars

These are common in areas with heavy mice infestation. The mold is made from a combination of urine, general dirt, and body grease. It is very smelly. These molds can grow to a height of up to 4 cm.

• Scratching Noises

If you suspect that you have a mice infestation, listen for scratching noises at nights. Mice are most active at night and you may hear them moving in the basement, ceiling, and other parts of the house. 
​

• Nests

Mice will mostly build their nests in wall cavities, ceilings, attics, under stoves, and other hidden areas around your home. These nests are built from easily shred, soft materials.
