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.

    • I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.
    • Southwark lists parks as an ecologically important space so don't understand the point. 
    • We have found 3 stag beetles in the old tree stump, and single nesting bees in the grass, so we're still not mowing it. I have taken the seeds head off the dart grass and trimmed the dead bluebells and it's alright.  
    • Back garden mowed on Monday, some of it for the first time this year.  Not a lot of interest in this grassland, but hoping for the promised rain this week as it needs it.  We use no tap water in the garden apart from conditioner tap water for the pond when rainwater storage runs out, very early this year. Purple clover, buttercups, rattle and ox eye daisies looking great in the front.  Seeds sown did not germinate due to lack of spring rain.  The meadow will be cut by hand when flowers die back, white clover will be out shortly and cutting the rest back may encourage the purple clover to flower again.  Loads of bees  Fun time is when the grasshoppers appear.
