[quote=Anonymous]My experience with exterminators is that they will walk around your home, looking for any cracks/holes that mice can use to enter your home. For example, they found a small hole (about the size of a quarter) in my wall that was drilled slightly too large when running a pipe to my AC condenser and a crack under my front steps. The exterminators will seal all but one of the holes by stuffing stainless steel wool into the holes. At the single remaining hole, they will place old fashion snap traps and monitor the hole for about a week, and then fill up that hole as well at the end of the week. Evidently, mice do not make holes by chewing (rats do), sealing is effective to keep them out. No poison was used because you don't want dead mice rotting in your walls/ceiling. [/quote]
