If you’ve noticed small droppings in your pantry lately, heard scratching inside your walls at night, or found chewed spots on food packaging, you may have a rodent problem. One of the questions we get the most is: Does pest control kill mice?

To respond to that nearly, you need to understand exactly what professional pest control means, what mice (also known as “micel” in older or wrong references) do, and what we at Progreen Pest Control & Lawn do to remove these pests that no one wants to share space or property with!

Let’s break this down, step-by-step, so you can make a completely informed decision for your home or business.

Mice: Behavior, Risks, And How They Invade

They are very adaptable rodents and do just as well in an urban, suburban, or rural setting. They can infest homes through dime-sized cracks and, once inside, will search out warmth, shelter, and find food.

Why are they a problem?

• They pollute food supplies with urine and feces.
• They gnaw through insulation and wiring, and even plumbing, creating fire hazards and structural problems.
• They have a high rate of reproduction, with a single pair producing dozens of offspring in a matter of months.
• They harbor germs that can pose a health risk to humans and pets.

Then, the question “does pest control get rid of micel” becomes, do pest control pros have the tools and talent to fully control and eliminate rodent infestations while also keeping them from coming back?

Knowing What Pest Control Does

Professional pest control is so much more than setting a trap or spraying chemicals. At Progreen Pest Control & Lawn, it is also holistic, science-driven, and personalized to your space. Here’s what they tend to include:

Inspection

You will receive a comprehensive inspection of your house or company, which will take place to find:

• Entry points
• Nesting locations
• Food and water sources
• Extent of the infestation

This step is critical. Without knowing how the micel got in or where they’re hiding, anything you do to treat them will be akin to placing a Band-Aid over the problem.

Exclusion

When access areas are spotted, Progreen specialists will seal them. This may include:

• Filling cracks and gaps around walls, foundations
• Mesh screens for vents
•  Replacing weather stripping around doors and windows

Exclusion is a very effective long-term strategy. If mice aren’t getting in, they’re not going to help repopulate.

Elimination

This is where the question of “does pest control get rid of mites?” becomes evident. The steps in the elimination process are usually:

•  Placing tamper-resistant bait stations
• Setting of humane traps where required
• Responsibly use rodenticides only as needed
• Tracking movement patterns with powders or smart traps

At Progreen, we custom-tailor the elimination process to suit the severity and type of the infestation, always in compliance with EPA and state requirements to secure the health of people, pets, and the environment.

Sanitation & Cleanup

Mice don’t just create physical messes; they can also leave bacteria in their wake. Progreen can help or advise with the following:

• Removing droppings
•  Cleaning out infested insulation
• Disinfecting affected areas
• Getting the smell of mice out of houses

Ongoing Monitoring

Pest control is not a one-time treatment. At Progreen, we also provide follow-up call-back visits and long-term monitoring as part of an integrated pest management approach. (His solution also prevents micel populations from returning after they are first dealt with).

Will Pest Control Exterminate Mickey No Matter What?

Short answer: It should get rid of mice—with the right methods, pest control does kill mice. But the sojourn is something that depends on many things:

•  How extensive the infestation is
• The state of the building and whether it is accessible
• Intervention by Property Owner (at time of sealing food and/or at time of cleaning , etc.)
