Mice Control Tips For Calistoga Residents In Calistoga Area
Â
Eliminate Access PointsÂ
The first step in controlling mice is to make sure they cannot get into your home or business in the first place. Check around windows and doors for any signs of entry points, such as gaps or holes in the walls or foundation. Also, look for any potential entry points along plumbing pipes and electrical wires that may be exposed on the exterior of your home or building.
Set Traps & Baits
Another effective way to control mice is by setting traps and bait. Mouse traps come in many different types, such as snap traps, glue boards, and live traps. When using bait with mouse traps, it is important to use something that will attract the mouse without putting people or pets at risk of becoming poisoned.
Hire Professional Pest Control Services
Finally, if you have an infestation that you cannot seem to get rid of on your own, it may be time to hire professional pest control services such as Attic Pros. Pest control companies employ experienced professionals who know how to properly identify and treat a variety of pests including mice. Â

How To Get Rid Of Mice In A Natural Way
1. Peppermint Oil
This is one of the best-known natural mouse repellents. Mice cannot stand the smell of peppermint oil and will avoid any area where it is present. Simply add a few drops of peppermint oil onto cotton balls and place them in areas where you’ve seen mouse activity—under appliances, in closets, etc.Â
2. Dryer Sheets
While this may seem counterintuitive since dryer sheets are designed to make things smell nice, mice can’t stand the scent and will stay away from areas that have been treated with dryer sheets. You can put dryer sheets around the perimeter of your home or anywhere else where you see signs of mouse activity.Â
3. Cinnamon
Another aromatic option for getting rid of mice is cinnamon. Like peppermint oil and dryer sheets, mice cannot stand the scent and will move on as soon as they catch a whiff of it! Sprinkle some ground cinnamon around your home or mix it with water to create a spray solution that can be applied in problem areas.Â
4. Catnip
Catnip has long been known as an effective deterrent for keeping cats away from certain areas but did you know that it works on mice too? Plant catnip around the outside perimeter of your home or even inside if necessary; this will keep mice out without harming them or causing any other damage to your property! Â

So while it’s important to be proactive with termite control methods, it can also be beneficial to leave some of these helpful pests in their natural habitats.
