Mice Control
Mice Control in Phoenix, AZ, | Critter Bros
Do you have mice infesting your home in the Phoenix, AZ area? Mice are attracted by sources of food and shelter within the home, and these tiny rodents can breed extremely quickly. A few mice deciding to set up shop inside your attic can lead to hundreds of mice before you even know it. Mice are rodents, with teeth that never stop growing. In order to keep the length of their teeth manageable, mice will gnaw on everything they possibly can, including wooden beams in your attic, cabinet doors in your kitchen, and even the rubber covering around wires, which can lead to a house fire. Mice also will raid your kitchen at night, crawling all over your counters and eating the dry, prepackaged food stored in your kitchen. Mice tend to leave behind urine and feces as they scurry around and feed, so these small rodents will contaminate your food supplies as well as your food preparation services.
Mice also love to tunnel deep within the attic insulation, which ruins its effectiveness and ability to resist heat. If you need mice control services in Phoenix, AZ, Critter Bros is here to help.

Mice in Attic Control
Attics are safe, warm, and protected from predators, which makes them a perfect nesting site for mice. Mice will burrow deep inside your attic insulation, literally hollowing the insulation out with their tunnels. This can have a significant impact on your insulation’s R-value, or its heat resistance.
Insulation full of mice tunnels will not be able to regulate your home’s temperature as well as it should, which can lead to extreme cold in the winter and extreme heat in the summer. Mice tunnels aren’t always obvious, so look out for the dive holes, which are the circular entry points from where mice started the tunnel.
A mice infestation inside your attic can also pose a fire hazard risk. Attics often contain electrical wires and cables, and mice will gnaw on the protective rubber covering on these wires to file their teeth down. This can expose the bare wiring to the insulation, which can potentially lead to a house fire.
Mice in Kitchen Control
Kitchens are often a hotspot of mouse activity. Mice will gnaw on your cabinet doors, and feast on any food they find within. Mice prefer dry, prepackaged food, so your pantry or any food kept in your cabinets is perfect for them. You might find cardboard boxes, plastic bags, or soft plastic containers gnawed open, with the food missing or having bites clearly taken out of it. Mice will also get underneath your appliances like your oven or fridge in search of crumbs to eat. If you’ve left any food out on your counters, table, or food preparation services, mice will happily feast on those as well. Mice leave behind urine and feces as they walk, so spotting tiny mouse droppings and smelling the ammonia smell of mice urine inside your pantry or on your kitchen counters is a surefire sign that mice have invaded your home.
Diseases Spread by Mice
While mice can potentially carry rabies, they are not known to transmit the virus to people. However, mice can spread several other infectious diseases, including hantavirus, tularemia, leptospirosis, and plague. Mice also carry parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites, which spread diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Mice tracks and urine on your food preparation surfaces and in your pantry can spread salmonella.

How To Keep Mice Out Of Your House
Another crucial aspect of integrated pest management is determining and sealing off the entry points that mice are using to get inside your home. Mice can squeeze through holes the size of a nickel, so our team will carefully inspect crucial points in the home like attics, crawl spaces, and foundations, and we will seal off any potential entry point we find. After the mice population is eliminated, this will prevent the mice from returning.
Another way to keep mice out of your home is to make your home less attractive to them. Keep all your food in sealed, air-tight, hard plastic containers that mice cannot chew through. Make sure you do not leave behind crumbs or leave out food, and vacuum regularly. This is called habitat modification, and it’s another crucial aspect of IPM.
