Rickettsialpox is spread by blood-sucking house mouse mites. Symptoms mimic chickenpox, including rash, fever and headache. The first step in effective mouse control is monitoring the size and location of the population. This includes a recognition of their food source. The size of a population can be determined by the number caught in traps, droppings, and amount of food eaten.
Exclusion is an important aspect of all mouse control efforts.
Otherwise, sooner or later, more mice will enter the area and the infestation will become chronic. Elimination of food sources will serve to keep mouse populations to a minimum. It is more difficult to eliminate water and mouse harborages since in most buildings, there is always moisture condensing on pipes and there are many wall voids for mice to nest in. Since the use of snap traps is an efficient means of controlling mouse infestations, we have elaborated on the details of using this tool so that success can be maximized.
