Dealing With Mice in Walls in Star, Idaho
Mice in walls are a common problem in Star homes, especially during cooler months when mice move indoors seeking warmth and shelter. Wall cavities provide hidden travel routes that allow mice to move between rooms, floors, and nesting areas without being seen.
If you’re hearing light scratching, tapping, or movement inside your walls—particularly at night—you may be dealing with an active infestation. Pestcom Pest Management specializes in identifying, removing, and preventing mice in walls in Star.
What Causes Mice to Enter Walls?
Mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime. Once inside, wall voids allow them to travel safely throughout the structure.
- Gaps around utility lines and plumbing
- Garage framing and door gaps
- Roofline and siding openings
- Unsealed vents or wall penetrations
- Cracks along foundations
Signs of Mice in Walls
Mice in walls are often noticed by sound before visible evidence appears. Common signs include:
- Light scratching or scurrying noises
- Sounds moving between rooms or floors
- Small droppings near baseboards or utility rooms
- Gnaw marks on wood or wiring
- Recurring nighttime activity
Why Mice in Walls Should Be Taken Seriously
Even small mouse infestations can cause problems:
- Chewed electrical wiring
- Contaminated insulation
- Unpleasant odors
- Rapid population growth
- Damage hidden behind walls
