We have problems with red squirrels in our house. We are using Baystate Wildlife Management in Canton MA. I’m not sure if they deal with mice but they do not use poison and will block off the entry ways. They also have 2 year warranty.

I hate the idea of using poison. We’ve used Critter Control in the past, and they sealed off gaps and as far as I was told, did not use toxins. I believed they used traps as well. Pets can also become sick if the mice venture out to die and are eaten by the pets. Cats can also be helpful problem solvers in this department! :) Best, Margo On Thu, Jan 30, 2025 at 9:47 AM DJCP <djcp0...@gmail.com <mailto:djcp0...@gmail.com> > wrote: I don't have recs as my husband is our household's pest control expert, but you really should hire someone who will help seal any gaps that mice can enter thru. Plus, most rodenticides work their way up the food chain and kill large prey like raptors and eagles. In our house, we seal any gaps with spray foam and wire mesh, and then put out snap traps to catch any strays. I know this is hard in older homes, but poison is not going to solve the problem in the long term as there will always be mice!

The recent cold weather has cased some mice, I think, to come indoors. I have not seen them but can hear them in the ceiling. If you know a reliable person, please reply.
