Mice are small, curious and quick to breed, and a couple can become a household problem in a matter of weeks. In Hamilton, they are especially common in units and older homes, where they move in through gaps around pipes, under doors and behind appliances. The first signs are usually tiny droppings in the cutlery drawer or pantry, nibbled packets and a faint musty smell.
When you ring, we ask where you are seeing signs and give you upfront pricing. We then book a nearby independent crew. Mice rarely travel far from their nest, so the crew we book works close to where you are seeing activity, checking cupboards, the space under the oven, the back of the fridge and any gaps where pipes pass through walls. The visit usually covers:
- Finding nests and runways in kitchens, laundries and wall cavities
- Setting snap traps or enclosed trap boxes near the activity
- Placing lockable bait stations in roof spaces and subfloors
- Keeping everything out of reach of children and pets
- Showing you the gaps to fill with steel wool or sealant
- Checking appliances and cables for chew damage
In apartment blocks around Hamilton, mice often travel between units through shared walls and service ducts, so a problem next door can become yours. If neighbours are seeing mice too, it may be worth asking the body corporate to arrange a wider check. Mice can also chew wiring inside walls and appliances. At home, keep food in sealed containers and wipe down benches before bed so the traps and bait are the easiest meal around.
Call 07 3543 7767 to book mouse control. We will give you the price and set a time with a local crew, same-day or next-day where the run allows.
