House mice are common in homes, warehouses, and commercial buildings. They seek warmth, food, and shelter in hidden areas like attics, wall voids, storage boxes, and under kitchen appliances.
Mice are smaller and lighter, with longer tails and proportionally larger ears. They tend to explore openly and adapt quickly, while rats are more cautious and prefer to stay near established burrows.
Adult house mice measure about 6-9 cm long, not including the tail. They have smooth, light brown to grey fur, large, rounded ears, and a pointed nose. Their tail is slender and nearly as long as their body.
House mice feed on a variety of items such as grains, seeds, and crumbs. They nibble frequently and can survive with very little water, drawing moisture from food sources. Even small crumbs or pet food can sustain them.
Block all potential entry points, even holes as small as a pencil can let a mouse through. Keep food sealed, clean up spills promptly, and remove clutter that can serve as nesting sites. Regular inspection and good sanitation are key to prevention.
Mice are mainly active at night and are excellent climbers and jumpers. They are curious but cautious of new objects. They leave droppings, gnaw marks, and scratching noises as typical signs of activity.
A single pair of house mice can quickly lead to a large infestation. Females can produce litters every 3–4 weeks, each containing 5–6 young. Within two months, these young mice reach maturity and begin reproducing, making early control essential.
