Mice – and What They Leave Behind

 

Now that we are in the colder wet months, mice will have been taking up shelter in homes to find food and warmth. If something seems out of place or there are small dark brown pieces of rice scattered around your kitchen, you’ll need to identify a budding problem and eliminate it before it becomes an plague. Encountering mice droppings, is a horrifying discovery, but even worse are the serious health issues associated with the presence of mice. Mice can produce almost 100 fresh droppings a night. They are 3-8mm in length and a dark shiny colour scattered randomly. Hantavirus (respiratory disease) is one of the most common diseases associated with mice droppings and urine, by touching the urine or dropping or inhaling their dust. Another nasty mouse-borne viral infection is Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis, this infection can lead to serious nerve issues. The first step in getting rid of mice droppings is to get rid of the mice… (contact a pro). To clean up any urine and droppings, wear gloves and use a disinfectant or a mixture of bleach and water.
