Mice don’t have the same bad reputation as rats, but that doesn't mean that they’re welcome in your home; in fact, mice are as destructive and dangerous to homes as they are annoying. Restore your peace of mind with mouse control from Ransford Pest Control.
Same-day Mice Control Service in Central Massachusetts
Ransford Pest Control's mice control program is designed to provide comprehensive and effective solutions for eliminating mouse infestations in your home or business. Our program includes a variety of targeted measures to ensure that mice are eradicated and prevented from returning. Here's what our mice control service includes (as needed):
- Home Inspection: The technician will walk around your home on the interior and exterior to determine the entry points.
- Interior Bait Stations: We strategically place bait stations throughout the structure, each containing a solid rodenticide to attract and eliminate mice.
- Wall Void Treatments: When we identify holes in the walls, we insert soft bait into the wall void and then seal up the hole to prevent further entry.
- Mechanical Traps: We utilize mechanical 'snap' traps, typically placed on the sill of the basement and in the attic, to catch mice effectively.
- Exterior Coverage (with service plans): Choose a service plan that includes exterior coverage, and we will place exterior bait stations along the perimeter of the building(s). Each station usually contains 8 bait blocks to provide a robust line of defense against mice attempting to enter from outside.
If you sign up for our Premier Plan or Mouse Plan, we will place and regularly service exterior bait stations to prevent mice from establishing a foothold in your home.
Types of Mice Found in Massachusetts
House Mouse
The house mouse is a common pest in Massachusetts, frequently invading homes and businesses in search of food and shelter. These small mice are highly adaptable and capable of thriving in a variety of environments, from urban areas to rural settings. House mice are notorious for their ability to reproduce quickly, leading to large infestations if not promptly controlled.

Do I have Mice in My Home?
Mice may be small and sneaky, but a trained eye can still spot the signs of their activity. A female mouse can have a new litter every 25 days, so getting ahead of an infestation is critical to avoid altogether taking over your home. When you notice any of the following signs of mouse activity, contact Ransford Pest Control immediately.
- Scratching noises at night: Mice are most active at night, which is when you may hear noises coming from behind walls or on floors around your food prep and storage areas.
- Droppings: You may notice rice-sized droppings, particularly around the kitchen, pantry, closets, or basement.
- Mouse footprints: Mice love to hide in areas of your home where dust tends to collect. So, when they venture out in search of food, they usually leave behind footprints.
- Nests: To raise their young mice, build nests out of easily shreddable material like paper, cardboard, and linen. Look for these under floorboards, in lofts, behind refrigerators, or under stoves.
- Bite marks on food: Unsurprisingly, mice usually come into your home in search of food. Visible bite marks on food packaging or on easily accessible foodstuffs are one of the surest signs of mice in your home.
