If mice are not promptly brought under control the will quickly reproduce compounding the problem. Mice will enter homes, cottages or businesses at almost any time of the year in search of food or to create a nest.

Rats vary in size from 4-12 inches. Their diet consists of eating almost everything, especially garbage or scraps. These are nocturnal creatures they eat and drink under the cover of darkness.
