Mice Control & Mouse Traps

If their living conditions are good (their water, food, and shelter) they can multiply rapidly. They sexually mature in two months and produce about eight litters in a one-year time span. Each litter contains about 4 to 7 pups.
House mice in the city spend nearly their entire lives inside building. A rural mouse may not only live inside, but be found in foundations, shrubbery, weeds, crawl spaces, basements, and garages.
