Get Rid of Mice Before They Get Rid of You!

If you're asking, "Why me?" you're not alone... Thousands of homes each year get invaded by these little rodent, but do not despair. They're not there because you have a dirty home, they're just looking for a place to live for a while. Mice tend to migrate indoors while the fall months as the temperatures get cooler. They have a natural tendency to move in closer to a source of food... Yes that bag of dog food in the garage, or that box of cereal in the pantry, or that peanut butter sandwich you dropped behind the couch.

Ok - so how did they get here in the first place? Mice are incredibly agile creatures. The tasteless house mouse is capable of squeezing straight through a hole the size of your pinkie. Take a look at that finger and think about it - in your entire large house do you have any holes that big important to the surface world? Maybe a pipe, or a cable that isn't sealed properly. Maybe ground floor window that is stating to crack open. Seal those holes up... Now! You might get rid of your mouse problem, but it won't do you a bit of good because they're like the "Ah-nold" - they'll be back!

So what do you do about it... Habitancy are always construction great mouse traps, but what's the best?

A lot of Habitancy tend to go with the old fashioned spring loaded bar trap... Ya know the one you always see on Tv. They work sometimes, but you may find yourself up against one smart mouse and that bait will be missing and the trap won't be snapped.

You may also be inspecting the poison option, but let me suggest you against this one. If the mouse eats that lethal dose, who knows where it will end up. As luck will have it, it'll probably bite the dust inside one of your walls and stink up your house for weeks or months.

Your best bet, though it may be carefully inhumane by some, is the glue trap. Basically it's a piece of cardboard or plastic with an very sticky surface. You place bait on it, and once the mouse walks on it, it'll get stuck. These work quite well, but sometimes the mice will die a continued death because of exposure. Try to check these traps daily or you may find yourself a dead mouse who died a long painful death. If you're lucky (depending how you look at it), you may even find it alive.

There are also varied live catch traps that are carefully more humane but only if you check the traps regularly. If a mouse lands itself in a live catch trap, it may still die of exposure or ultimate stress. These traps can be found at your local WalMart or hardware store. There are varied trap designs out there, such as wire cage traps or the box and door traps. You'll have to see what's available.

One last thing... If you go the way of a live catch trap, make sure to issue the mouse miles away from your home. Mice have an very keen sense of smell that will act as a biological homing device..... That will land them right back at your front door, or in your kitchen (you did seal up those holes, didn't you?).

Termite Fumigation Issues

Have you recently found out that you have a serious termite infestation? Have you just been told that you will have to use gas on them because it is the fastest recipe of termite control and you do not have any time to lose? If so, poisonous gas probably is the only answer.

However no one would condemn you for being a diminutive implicated about having your house filled with poisonous gas. It does not sound a very wholesome environment to have to live, eat and sleep in afterwards, does it? The good news is that there is diminutive cause for concern, especially if you use a reputable firm with a history of using gas on termites.

Vikane is one of the most commonly used gases for the fumigation of termites. It is regularly used with a practice called tenting. Tenting means quite assuredly erecting a tent over the whole buildings involved, say your house.

The tent is then sealed as much as possible, the Vikane gas is pumped in and fans are utilized to make sure that it is circulated throughout your house, including your attic and basement. The gas is left to do its deadly work for a day within the sealed up tent and within your house.

On the second day, the tent is taken off and the house is aired using the fans again. Delicate instruments are used to determine the levels of gas in all parts of your home and when the pest controller is convinced that the levels of gas have dropped to where your house is safe for human occupancy, you will be permitted to move back in. That will typically be on the third day.

Vikane does not leave a sticky deposit, so it will not leave a film on your furnishings which you will have to clean off later. When the house has been thoroughly ventilated, all the gas will have disappeared, although there may still be a few innocuous pockets left behind rafters and joists in the attic and basement.

Tenting your house may give you grounds to think that the gas must be risky for surrounding wildlife or your neighbours, but this is not the reason for tenting. The tent is erected in order to sustain the gas against the exterior of the exterior walls of your house as well, so that it is treated from inside and out, although it does help stop wasting gas also.

This tenting recipe of fumigation with Vikane is a very prosperous recipe of eliminating an infestation of termites from a building. In fact, it is so efficient that your contractor should issue you with a warranty, although you may have to have the process repeated every year or two in order to mouth the warranty.

Vikane is aimed solely at termites, so it will not eradicate any other eco-system that has established itself within your house. It will not kill spiders, ants, bed bugs or cockroaches. More's the pity, I can hear you saying.
