Hi,
We have seen some mouse dropping in the kitchen & basement and would like to get an exterminator to address the issue. I tried plugging all the exterior holes / glue traps / mice poison but continue to see some droppings. Can anyone recommend an exterminator? Would like someone who would do treatment as well as provide advice on how to prevent reoccurence....
Thanks

No need to kill those innocent creatures. These live-catch traps ...
Victor M007 Live Catch Mouse Trap - 2-Pack: Pest Control : Walmart.com
... work well and are reusable. I've used them for years with good results.

A single shelled peanut or 2-3 sunflower seeds is an effective bait.

Swift Creek Exterminating took care of our furry friend a few years ago.

They are reasonable and won't try to sell you anything.

I have never called regarding mice but I have found Custom Termite and Pest to be excellent.

I recently saw a tabby on the corner near the bank with a sign that said "will work for food".

Why don't you stop by the local SPCA and get your own fulltime, live-in exterminator? We've got two! (and no mice)

We have 2 cats and mice do not visit our apartment.

Cats make lovely friends if you pick nice ones. Try Safe Haven for Cats.

Swift Creek or Custom-----or go to Home Depot/Lowes/Ace and pick up some traps. A little peanut butter on a trap will lure them in every time.

Can't beat the old Victor's to get rid of mice. Can't beat the price either...that is unless you have a cat or two.
