We don't just clear the immediate problem; we offer long-term prevention strategies to give you lasting peace of mind.
Why Choose Us?
Recognising the Warning Signs of Mice in Your Exeter Property
Mice are incredibly elusive, often operating under the cover of darkness. However, they always leave clues. If you suspect you have a mouse problem in your Exeter property, keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs:
- Droppings: Small, dark, pellet-like droppings (about the size of a grain of rice) are usually found near food sources, in cupboards, along skirting boards, or under sinks.
- Gnaw Marks: Mice constantly gnaw to keep their teeth in check. Look for small chew marks on food packaging, wooden furniture, plastic pipes, or electrical cables.
- Scratching Noises: Listen for scratching, scurrying, or gnawing sounds, especially at night, coming from lofts, wall cavities, under floorboards, or behind cupboards.
- Nests: You might find shredded materials like fabric, paper, or insulation in hidden areas, indicating a nest.
- Runways: Mice often use the same routes, creating greasy or dirty tracks along walls and skirting boards.
- Odour: A distinct, musky, stale smell, especially in enclosed areas, can indicate a significant mouse infestation.
Spotting any of these signs means it's time to call in the professionals before the problem escalates.

At Moorlander Pest Control, our approach to mouse control in Exeter is thorough and tailored to your specific situation. We follow a proven process to ensure complete eradication and long-term prevention:
- Thorough Site Survey: We begin with a meticulous inspection of your property to identify the extent of the infestation, entry points (often called ingress points), food sources, and harborage areas where mice are hiding and nesting. This crucial step allows us to develop a targeted strategy.
- Strategic Treatment Plan: Based on our findings, we deploy a combination of professional-grade tools. This often includes secure, tamper-resistant bait stations containing specialist rodenticides, as well as strategically placed traps. Unlike off-the-shelf products, our methods are designed for maximum effectiveness and safety.
- Proofing and Prevention Advice: Eradication is only part of the solution. We provide clear, actionable advice on how to mouse-proof your property. This can involve sealing small gaps around pipes, repairing damaged vents, or even conducting specialist drain surveys if that's a suspected entry route.
- Follow-Up Visits: We often schedule follow-up visits to monitor progress, remove any deceased rodents, and ensure the infestation has been completely cleared.
Our goal is not just to remove the current mice, but to implement robust solutions that keep your Exeter property mouse-free for the long term.

Once the immediate mouse problem is under control, the next critical step is prevention. Mice are incredibly resourceful and can squeeze through astonishingly small gaps – often no wider than a pencil. Our expert team will identify potential entry points and advise on, or implement, effective mouse proofing measures for your Exeter home or business. This can include:
- Sealing gaps around utility pipes and cables where they enter your property.
- Repairing damaged vents or fitting mesh covers.
- Blocking holes in external walls, foundations, or brickwork.
- Ensuring doors and windows fit snugly and have no gaps underneath.
- Checking and securing any gaps around your roofline, especially in older properties.
- For persistent problems, we can even conduct CCTV drain surveys to check for breaches in your drainage system, a common rodent highway.
Investing in professional mouse proofing is the most effective way to protect your property from future unwelcome guests.
