You can’t resolve a mouse problem if you don’t know how they’re getting in. We begin with a thorough 50 point inspection of your home’s exterior and interior to identify all mouse entry points. We then remove the mice using expertly installed one-way doors that allow the mice to leave for food but prevent them from getting back in.
Mice are messy, leaving droppings and urine behind wherever they go. Skedaddle offers cleaning and sanitizing services to safely remove harmful mouse droppings and contaminated building materials to return your home to a liveable state.
The results from our initial home inspection will provide us with a full understanding of what areas of your home need to be sealed against future mice infestations. Our wildlife technicians will use professional grade wildlife exclusion materials to prevent any possible re-entry and keep mice out.
Burlington home and business owners deal with mouse issues and infestations every year. Mice are known to thrive in areas where they can find access to food, water, and shelter. As Burlington continues to grow with more commercial and residential areas each year, more of these resources become available – allowing mouse populations to thrive.
Mice might be small, yet the damage they cause is far from insignificant. They infest buildings, scurry through attics, chew on wires, and leave droppings that affect indoor air quality.

As a home or business owner in Burlington, dealing with mice can be tedious. However, several preventative measures can keep these rodents at bay, ensuring that your living or working space remains rodent-free. Here are some practical ways to maintaining a mouse-free environment:
Secure Entry Points: They are adept climbers and can squeeze through tiny openings. To prevent an infestation, examine your property thoroughly and repair any areas that could be potential mouse entry points.
Proper Food Storage: Even a single food crumb can invite rodents, making secure food storage essential. Keep all food items securely stored and ensure that surfaces are clean, including stovetops, countertops and other surfaces. Remember not to leave pet food out overnight.
Maintain a Clean Environment: They are less likely to inhabit clean, uncluttered spaces. Frequently clean trash cans, keep the yard tidy, store firewood away from the building, and keep the home clutter-free to deter the mice population.
Professional Help: Whenever you find it difficult to manage a serious infestation, consider calling in wildlife control professionals to take care of the problem. They will identify the source of the infestation and employ necessary control methods to get rid of these pesky rodents.
Mouse infestations result in costly damage in the hard-to-reach places of the home like attics and basements. Soiled attic insulation, damaged electrical and duct work, and hazardous droppings are just a few of the contaminants they leave behind. Without the proper protective equipment, removing mice can lead to bacterial infections and further contamination throughout the home or place of business.
