Inspect Common Areas Where Mice Nest Â
Mice typically nest near sources of food and water, which means they are often found in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. They will build nests in cupboards, drawers, boxes, closets, attics, behind appliances, and inside furniture.
Their nests may be made from paper products such as newspaper or cardboard boxes as well as insulation materials like cotton or felt. When inspecting for mouse nests, it is important to check all the nooks and crannies of your home including attics and crawl spaces.
If you have a rodent problem, you should look for signs of gnawing on woodwork or wires as well as droppings on floors or countertops. Additionally, mice may leave trails of urine along walls or baseboards so keep an eye out for these too.Â
Look For Droppings Around Burrows Â
Another way to identify potential mouse nesting sites is to look for burrows around your property or inside your home. Burrows are tunnels where mice dig into the ground to access food sources or find shelter. These tunnels will usually have dirt piled up around them with small openings at one end where the mice enter and exit the burrow.
Check areas near garbage cans, compost piles, decks or porches for any potential burrowing activity. Additionally, you can look for small holes in walls or floorboards that could be entry points into the house itself. Â
