Pests We Treat Photo Album: Poorly Insulated Attic Gets Mice in Titusville, NJ
This is why a professional is always recommended!
Wasn't Done Right
The homeowner had added some blown-in insulation to his attic on his own. The issue was that he didn't do it correctly, used a cheap alternative, and didn't fill it to the proper R-Value amount. Due to this, mice had infested the attic.
Mice Tunneling Through the Insulation
We found a bunch of mice tunnels and their feces throughout the insulation.
Gnaw Marks on the Wires
This is why you should leave it up to the pros. We also noticed that some of the wires in the attic had chew marks on them from the mice, making this a fire hazard!
Setting Up the Rodent Bait Stations
We set up a number of rodent bait station throughout the attic and around the exterior of the home. We then scheduled several follow-up inspections to monitor the activity and replenish the bait stations as needed.
