Mouse Problem

Recommended Posts

We are out of the country but our tenants have just called the Managing Agent to say they have seen a mouse and can we send in pest control. Personally if I was the tenant I would just put a few traps down but don't feel we can suggest this so has anyone got any recommendations for a company/person to send in?


Many thanks

Personally as a rodent phobic, feel strongly that not owning the house this problem should really fall with the landlord. All very well calling in the pest control, putting downs traps only sort it for now. They come back quickly!!! The only way of stopping them from entering your house is blocking holes. Find out especially where they are coming in. Use steel wool. Cheap! And then use expander foam / or cement at the holes. Depending on what the surface. Pest control told me in order to KEEP them out you have to block holes.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
