- There’s never just one. Mice are communal animals and aren’t the type to go it alone. If you see even a single mouse inside your home you can bet there are more you aren’t seeing.
- Mouse populations grow quickly. Female mice give birth 5 to 10 times in a single year with each litter containing as many as 12 young.
- They’re very sneaky. Mice are tiny, ranging in size from 65 to 95 mm. They can make themselves incredibly small and squeeze into any gap or hole larger than a dime! Mice are also excellent climbers meaning they can enter a home at any point from the ground up.
- Mice are messy. Mice are constantly urinating and defecating as they travel. A single mouse can produce 40 to 100 droppings a day. Mice carry a host of germs and diseases that they spread as they travel in search of food. If you have mice in your attic, think of it as a giant litter box above your head.
