House mice are considered one of the most destructive and invasive species to humans. They can contaminate food sources, damage belongings, and spread disease. House mice chew through wiring and insulation in homes, potentially causing fires or electrical failure. Their droppings can also cause respiratory problems for people living around them. Additionally, house mice reproduce quickly and potentially overrun a home if not appropriately controlled.

They often use small crevices to get into buildings, increasing the difficulty of getting rid of them once they’ve entered. Furthermore, since they typically live close to humans, accidental ingestion of their droppings is a risk that should not be ignored. As such, controlling mouse populations as soon as possible is essential to avoid the destruction and health risks they can cause.
