| Precautions | What
to Expect
A small scampering creature, the mouse
relies on its senses of smell and hearing rather
than sight to find its way around. It uses its
nose to track food and to follow scent paths. Its
hearing is particularly attuned to high tones. The
most commonly known of the mice is the house
mouse. It grows to about 8 inches long from nose
to the tip of the tail. Its naked, scaly tail is
about half of its body length. Its fur is brown or
gray. Two mice can produce up to 16,000 droppings
in a six month period.
Treatment
We inspect for access holes and nesting sites. We
will place either bait stations or bait packs
containing a poison bait throughout the basement
area. Also in key areas of the house, such as
under the kitchen sink, behind the stove,
refrigerator, dishwasher or other areas where
droppings have been found or mice have been
sighted or heard gnawing.
Precautions
People and pets should not come in contact
with or eat the bait. If someone touches the bait
make sure that they wash their hands with soap and
water. If the bait is ingested, call your local
poison center immediately. Have the packet or bait
station with label handy. E.P.A. information on
these items will be needed.
What
to Expect
You must give the bait 10 days to become fully
effective. After this period sweep up all
droppings. If within seven (7) additional days new
droppings are found or if you are still
seeing/hearing mice please call us. We may need to
replenish the bait.
The guarantee for
mouse services in Massachusetts is six months.
