A rural village with farmland on every side sends mice indoors as winter nears. We treat the house and help you close the routes they use.
Staunton is a rural village in the Newark and Sherwood area, surrounded by farmland. The pattern here is seasonal: mice live outside through summer, then, as nights cool and fields are cleared, they test every wall, door and vent for a way in. Kitchens, larders and lofts are the usual end point, and garden stores and garages often come first, sheltering a nest long before it is noticed.
We look at the way mice are reaching the house and treat to suit your household. We are Trading Standards approved through Buy With Confidence, and there are no call-out charges, which we know matters when a village address is some way from town. You will get a plain account of what we found. Our visit is practical, and we do not overstate what can be achieved.
Before autumn arrives. Look for gaps around pipes, vents and door bases, and make sure outbuildings are tidy. Early action is easier than dealing with an established colony. A walk around the outside with a torch in the evening can show where light or draughts come in.
Not always indoors. Mice live in fields, but houses with sealed gaps and properly stored food are far less appealing. That is where advice helps most. Gaps and food storage decide the outcome far more than the distance to the field.
Mice can squeeze through very small gaps around pipes, vents, doors and airbricks, so even a tidy home can have them.

In a village with fields at the end of the garden, an ant trail can run a long way before it reaches your back door. Follow it before you spray anything.
