Deer mice may appear cute and innocent, but they can cause a number of problems around your commercial property. You have to worry about them taking over the property, carrying diseases, and destroying some of the property that you have worked so hard for. While hiring pest control professionals is a smart idea if you are worried that you have an infestation on your hands, there are a few steps that you can take to prevent and get rid of deer mice before they take over. Some of these steps include:

# Seal up any cracks on the inside and outside of the home. Mice, especially ones as small as deer mice, are going to be able to get into tiny holes much smaller than them, so seal up anything that you find.

# If you notice some of the older mortar and weather stripping near the foundation of the home and the windows, then it is time to replace it so that there is a smaller chance the mice can get in.

# All food needs to be put away properly. Keep it sealed and rodent-proof so you do not attract intruders.

# Make sure that the storage areas of your home and commercial property are clean and dry.

# You need to take the trash out as much as possible. Letting it sit there is going to attract all types of rodents.

# Since deer mice are small, they like to hide in some of the clutter that is around them. You need to make sure that all areas of the property are clean and you keep boxes off the floor.

# Keep tree branches and shrubs cut away from the home or property so it is harder for the deer mice to use those as access points to the property.

# You should not store bird seed or pet food in a storage shed or garage because these will attract the mice to your home.
# Take the time to inspect any outbuildings, attics, and basements to see whether there are some signs of the deer mice.

# If you think there are deer mice in the area, put on some gloves.
