OUR RECCOMENDATION 

Mice are prolific breeders, and reducing the current population is only part of the solution. The goal is not only to address the active problem, but also to prevent mice from getting back inside. This starts with a detailed inspection of the home from top to bottom to identify potential entry points and areas of activity.
