How do mice get in house? They squeeze through gaps as small as a dime. Common mice entry points include cracks in foundations, gaps around pipes and wires, dryer vents without covers, garage door seals, and holes around utility meters. A mouse hole does not have to be large. If a pencil fits through it, a mouse can too. That is why mouse proofing every gap is the only long-term fix.

The house mouse (Mus musculus) is the most common indoor mouse in Ontario. It is grey-brown with a long tail and lives near people year-round.

None of these address why mice are getting in. Without sealing entry points, new mice replace the ones you remove within days.

Most residential mice removal jobs take one to two weeks from inspection to final follow-up. The first visit covers inspection, trapping, and initial sealing.
