While house mice are an issue all year round, entering your home through an open back door and cracks in the foundation, other mouse pests infiltrate other areas of the house during only the winter months. These are rarely house mice as they will invade just about any time of year. Instead, it is far more likely to be field mice or deer mice, these mice are not interested in your food generally, they want warmth to living in and then they leave to hunt for food outside in their natural way. While the issue of food eating may not arise unless your home is especially messy or you store food in the attic they will cause damage to the attic. They will defecate everywhere including in the insulation which will need to be replaced, they will also chew on electric wires that can easily cause a massive fire in the attic of your home. These issues can be much worse than house mice who take years to get to an attic.

You can protect your home from these winter invaders by either performing what is called exclusion yourself or highering a professional that can seal off your home in ways you may not have thought of like a deck exclusion often referred to as trenching. This process involves digging a trench around a deck or shed to prevent burrowing animals like rodents from getting under it and entering your home without being noticed. Bushes and shrubbery near the home are also a danger and can allow mice to easily hunt for an entrance to the house without being noticed. Tallgrass is the biggest danger and will allow any number of rodents to enter your home. Make sure to move plants near your home and cut the grass extra short to stop them from hiding and finding a way in with ease. You can also put sealers on the door and seal up gaps in windows with spray foam but a trained technician will be able to do everything and more.
