Mice

Mice are a common household pest that can cause damage to property and pose a health risk to humans. There are several different species of mice, but the house mouse is the most common.

House mice are small, typically only growing to be 2-3 inches long (not including the tail). They are typically gray or brown in color and have large ears and a pointed snout. They are known for their ability to reproduce quickly, with females able to have up to 10 litters per year.

Mice are nocturnal and are most active at night. They are omnivores and will eat a variety of foods, including grains, fruits, vegetables, and meat. They can also carry diseases such as salmonella, hantavirus, and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, which can be transmitted to humans through contact with mouse droppings, urine, or saliva.

In summary, mice are a common household pest that can pose a health risk to humans. It's important to take steps to prevent mice from entering your home and to contact a pest control professional if you suspect an infestation.
