Mouse Pest Control Grafton
Mouse Pest Control Grafton Solutions
Mouse pest control Grafton is not something you want to delay. Even a single mouse can quickly turn into a much bigger problem — spreading germs, chewing through food packaging, and nesting in wall cavities, sheds, or pantries.
Mice are clever survivors. They move fast, breed faster, and are often active at night, making them hard to catch before the infestation has already grown. At Detecta Pest, we offer safe, fast, and effective rodent control solutions to eliminate mice and prevent them from returning.
Why Mice Are a Problem in Grafton
Mice aren’t just annoying — they bring real risks to homes and businesses:
- Contaminate food surfaces with urine, droppings, and hair
- Chew through wires, insulation, and storage containers
- Cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
- Spread harmful bacteria like salmonella and leptospirosis
- Reproduce rapidly — a single female can have 6–10 litters a year
Their presence in kitchens, roof spaces, or storerooms should never be ignored.

Signs You May Have a Mouse Infestation
- Scratching or scampering noises in walls or ceilings at night
- Small dark droppings, especially around food areas or baseboards
- Gnawed food packaging or soft materials used for nesting
- A musky or ammonia-like smell
- Nests built from shredded paper, fabric, or insulation
If you’re seeing any of these signs, even occasionally, it’s likely mice have moved in.
Our Mouse Control Process
At Detecta Pest, we handle mouse infestations from start to finish:
- Inspection and Entry Point Identification
We assess the property, find where mice are getting in, and look for nests or high-activity zones. Roof voids, garages, and kitchens are common hotspots. - Baiting and Trapping
We use tamper-proof bait stations, snap traps, and attractant gels depending on the infestation severity and location. Our treatments are pet-safe and discreet. - Rodent-Proofing Advice
We provide tailored recommendations on sealing up entry points, removing food access, and deterring future nesting. - Ongoing Monitoring (if needed)
For commercial sites or severe infestations, we can install monitoring stations and offer ongoing servicing to keep rodents out long-term.
Most homeowners notice a significant reduction in activity within 48–72 hours of treatment.
Common Mice Found in Grafton
Common House Mouse (Mus musculus)
Small (7–9 cm body), grey or brown, with large ears and a long, scaly tail. These mice thrive indoors and are extremely adaptable. They eat seeds, grains, pet food — and even butter or sweets when available.
Field Mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus)
More common around farms and rural areas. Field mice usually stay outdoors but may move into sheds, outhouses, or storage buildings in colder months. They pose a risk to crops, stored food, and produce.
Damage Caused by Mice
Mice can cause significant issues for both residential and commercial properties:
- In homes: Contaminate kitchens, chew through food packets, ruin insulation, and trigger allergies
- In businesses: Pose compliance risks for hospitality, tourism, and food storage operators
- In farms or rural settings: Damage seed stock, stored produce, and equipment wiring
If you run a business in Grafton and notice signs of rodent activity, we can help put a professional prevention plan in place.
