Mice Identification

What are mice?

Mice are a type of rodent and a common invader of both homes and businesses. They have come to at least partially depend on people for their survival. They are small mammals and have an oval-shaped body covered in light brown or gray fur and a lighter colored underbelly. Their tail has a light layer of fur covering it and is about the same length or longer than the body. They have a pointed nose and small ears. Like any species of rodent, they also have front incisors that continuously grow throughout their life.

Are mice dangerous?

Mice are unwelcome and dangerous pests. They spread diseases, transport parasites, contaminate food, and trigger allergies. Their insistent chewing to stop their teeth from overgrowing causes structural damage, damage to personal items, and pose a risk of fire.

Where will I find mice?

In nature, mice live in fields, parks, wooded areas, and our yards. Mice typically live outside but find their way indoors while foraging for food. They can move inside any time of the year, although they tend to move in when the weather outside becomes cooler.
