How Mice Get Inside Houston Homes
Why Mice Become a Bigger Problem If Left Untreated
If you’ve ever heard scratching in the walls at 2 a.m., seen mysterious droppings behind the stove, or watched your dog stare intensely at the pantry like he’s watching a horror movie — congratulations, you may have mice.
Houston’s mix of warm weather, older homes, endless construction, and abundant food sources makes it one of the top U.S. cities for rodent activity. And unlike many pests, mice aren’t just annoying — they’re destructive, unsanitary, and surprisingly dangerous.
Most Common Mice
House Mouse
Small, stealthy, and the most common culprit in Houston homes.
Identification & Location
Hear scratching at 2 a.m.? They are traveling through wall voids.
The Problem
Reproduce incredibly fast.
Squeeze through holes as small as ¼ inch.
Contaminate food and surfaces.
Chew on wiring and insulation.
Fun (or horrifying) stat
A single female can have up to 60 babies per year. That means what starts as two mice can become dozens in just a couple of months.
Deer Mouse
Less common in dense city areas but present in Houston’s rural outskirts and suburban neighborhoods.
Identification & Location
Heat rising from the home and fluffy insulation make perfect nests.
The Problem
Can carry Hantavirus, a serious respiratory disease.
Often found in garages, sheds, attics, and barns.
Nest in boxes, old furniture, and storage areas.
Fun (or horrifying) stat
Even though they’re cute, they’re still a serious health risk.
Why Professional Treatment Matters
DIY solutions often scatter the colony or only catch the slow ones. We address ALL parts of the infestation:
identification, extermination, sanitation, and exclusion.
Deep Inspection
Finding nest sites, activity zones, and hidden entry points.
Trapping & Removal
Humane or rapid-elimination methods based on the situation.
Sanitizing & Deodorizing
Removing pheromones that attract new mice.
Exclusion & Sealing
Sealing holes the size of a dime to stop their return.
Why Mice Are a Serious Problem
Not just a nuisance—legitimately hazardous.
Property & Structural Damage
Mice chew electrical wiring, creating major fire hazards.
They shred insulation, drywall, and stored items.
Rodents contaminate attics, wall voids, and HVAC areas with urine and droppings.
Health & Sanitation Risks
Mice spread Hantavirus, Salmonella, Listeria, and LCMV.
Droppings and urine contaminate kitchens and food supplies.
Their presence attracts fleas, mites, ticks — and even snakes.
Rapid Infestation Growth
A single pair can reproduce into dozens within months.
Houston’s warm climate accelerates breeding year-round.
DIY traps catch a few but never the colony, allowing infestations to rebound quickly.
Waiting even a few weeks can turn a minor issue into a full infestation.
