Standing up and leaning against wild deer mice isolated on white.
One of the most popular places in your home or business for mice to live is your attic. Other common attic pests are raccoons, bats, rats, mice, squirrels, and birds. The Deer mouse is the most common in Kingston, Belleville, Trenton, Prince Edward County and north.
Mice reproduce at an amazing pace. After a gestation period of 21-37 days, a female gives birth to 3-11 young. After a few months in your attic you can have a healthy population running around. With these populations, mice trapping takes between five to fourteen days.
Mice can fit through openings as small as half an inch in diameter, which means that small holes, gaps in doorways, and wall vents are common entry points. If a mouse cannot find a large enough entry point, it can chew through materials like shingles, light gauge metal and plywood to gain access to your attic.
Mouse Exclusion
Mice are amazing climbers and to seal off all entry points, the roof line cannot be ignored. Mice can squeeze through the top of brick under the soffit J- channel and directly into an attic. Mice occasionally enter at roof intersections where one level of the roof meets another. Roof vents are another entry point for mice. Sealing or protecting these areas are a must for total mouse exclusion/
