Helpful Information on Mice
We offer a range of mice treatments from one off visits to contracts for homes, businesses, equine and agricultural premises.
Mice can breed very quickly and the damage they cause can be detrimental not only in the cost of any structural repair work from their chewing but also the risk to human health as they spread diseases including salmonella and leptospirosis (weil’s disease).
There are 3 main species of mice that you may come across as a pest in the UK.
House Mouse (Mus Domesticus)
The House mouse (Mus domesticus) is around 950mm long with a pointed snout, large round ears, small feet unlike the field mouse and with a long almost hairless looking tail. The house mouse has benefited so well from human habitation that wild populations are less common than semi tame populations in or around human activity. Living outdoors the lifespan of a mouse is around 1 year, but indoors house mice can live up to 3 years. House mice eat around 3 grams of food per day.
Field Mouse (Apodemus Sylvaticus)
Field mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus) also known as wood mouse, are roughly 150mm long including their tail and have sandy/orange fur along their head and back with yellowish flanks and a white belly. The field mouse’s lifespan is between 1-3 years depending on predation and their environment. Field mice will usually go into outhouses and sheds where food may be stored and can be a bigger threat to agriculture and farming where large quantities of cereal crops are stored.
Yellow Necked Field Mouse (Apodemus Flavicollis)
Yellow necked field mice (Apodemus flavicollis) are approximately 170mm long including their tails with large ears, protruding eyes and have brown fur on their backs, a white belly and a complete band of yellow fur around the neck. The yellow necked field mouse has a short lifespan of just 3-4 months.
