When to Call a Mouse Control Professional?
If the signs of mice are recent and limited to one area, some homeowners may start with basic DIY options such as placing traps near activity areas, storing food in sealed containers, reducing clutter, and checking for obvious entry points. These steps can sometimes help when the problem is small and caught early.
If mice are still showing up after a couple of weeks, or no more than four weeks of DIY efforts, it is a good time to call a mouse control professional.
Starting professional service with Savvy Pest Control helps reduce guesswork and gives you a clearer plan to resolve the problem as quickly as possible, using methods selected for your situation with safety in mind.

What Are the Consequences of Having a Mouse Infestation at Home?
Mouse infestations are one of the most common pest problems in homes across Canada. Their activity can become more noticeable during colder months as rodents look for warmer, protected areas around homes and other buildings.
Although mice may seem harmless when seen outdoors, they can become a problem when they are active around your home or find ways to move closer to living areas.
Below are some of the main problems linked to mouse infestations:
Fires
Mice often gnaw on materials around a property, including electrical wires and cables. If they damage wiring inside walls, garages, sheds, or other areas, it may increase the risk of electrical problems or fire.
This does not happen in every infestation, but it is one of the reasons mouse activity should be inspected and addressed before the problem becomes more serious.
Diseases
Mice can contaminate surfaces, food storage areas, outdoor spaces, insulation, and other materials with droppings, urine, and nesting debris. This can create health concerns for people and pets, especially in areas where children play or where food is stored.
Mice may be associated with diseases and bacteria such as salmonella, leptospirosis, and Weil’s disease. The level of risk depends on the amount of activity, where the mice are active, and how long the infestation has been present.
If you find mouse droppings, avoid disturbing them until the area has been assessed. Droppings cleanup may require extra care, especially when contamination is widespread, located in enclosed spaces, or affecting insulation, storage areas, garages, or other frequently used areas.

Structural Damage
Mice can gnaw on wood, insulation, siding gaps, weatherstripping, drywall, and other building materials. Around the outside of the home, this activity may worsen small openings and make it easier for mice to enter.
Inside the home, damage to building materials can become costly if the infestation is not found early. In some cases, repairs may be needed after the mice are removed and entry points are sealed.
Allergies
Mouse droppings, urine, nesting materials, and dander can contribute to indoor air quality concerns. For people with asthma, allergies, or respiratory sensitivities, mouse activity may make symptoms worse.
These concerns can be stronger when mice are active in attics, basements, wall voids, storage rooms, or other enclosed areas where contamination can build up over time.

Mice are often active in quiet or hidden areas, so you may notice small signs before seeing a mouse directly.
Droppings
Mouse droppings are one of the most common signs of activity. They are often found near food storage areas, under sinks, inside cupboards, along walls, in basements, garages, or attics.
Scratching Sounds
Scratching, rustling, or light scurrying sounds may come from walls, ceilings, attics, or other hidden areas. These sounds are often more noticeable at night when the home is quiet.
Gnaw Marks
Mice chew on many materials, including wood, plastic, food packaging, baseboards, wires, and insulation. Small gnaw marks can be a sign that mice are active nearby.
Damaged Food Packaging
Chewed bags, boxes, or pantry items can be a sign of mice looking for food. Crumbs, small holes, or damaged packaging should not be ignored.
Nesting Materials
Mice may use paper, fabric, insulation, cardboard, or other soft materials to build nests. Shredded material in unusual places may suggest mouse activity.

Tracks or Grease Marks
Mice often travel along walls, baseboards, and hidden edges. Small tracks, smudges, or grease marks may appear where they move repeatedly.
Deterioration of Insulation
Torn, displaced, or shredded insulation can be a sign that mice are nesting or moving through hidden areas of the home, such as attics, basements, crawl spaces, or wall voids.
Smell
A mouse infestation can create a musty or unpleasant smell. This odour may come from urine, droppings, nesting materials, or a mouse that has died in a hidden area.
If you notice several of these signs, request a professional inspection.
