Why Mice Are a Serious Problem for Your Cornish Property
Mice might seem small, but they can create big problems. They breed incredibly quickly, meaning a small issue can rapidly become a full-blown infestation. Beyond the unpleasant thought of sharing your space, mice are known carriers of diseases like Salmonella and Leptospirosis, which can contaminate food preparation areas and surfaces. They also have a habit of gnawing through electrical wiring, which presents a significant fire hazard, and can damage pipework, insulation, and wooden structures. For homes and businesses in St Austell and the surrounding rural or coastal areas, preventing and controlling mouse infestations is crucial for health, safety, and peace of mind.

Who We Are
Recognising the Signs of a Mouse Infestation in St Austell Homes & Businesses
Often, you’ll detect mice before you actually see one. Being nocturnal, they’re very good at staying hidden during the day. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs:
- Droppings: Small, dark, pellet-like droppings (similar in size to a grain of rice), often found in kitchen cupboards, along skirting boards, or in lofts.
- Gnaw Marks: Look for small chew marks on food packaging, electrical cables, furniture, or wooden structures.
- Scratching Noises: You might hear scratching, scurrying, or gnawing sounds, especially at night, coming from walls, ceilings, or under floorboards.
- Unpleasant Odour: A distinct, stale, ammonia-like smell might be noticeable, particularly in enclosed areas like cupboards.
- Nests: Shredded materials like paper, fabric, or insulation indicate a nesting site, often in quiet, hidden spots.
- Sightings: Actually seeing a live mouse, especially during the day, suggests a significant infestation.

01822 668338Our Professional & Responsible Mouse Eradication Process
Simply setting a few traps often isn't enough to tackle a mouse infestation effectively. At Moorlander Pest Control, we employ a comprehensive, integrated pest management (IPM) approach to mouse control, always adhering to the CRRU (Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use) code of practice. This means we use rodenticides responsibly, protecting non-target species and the environment.
Our expert process typically involves:
- Thorough Survey: We'll conduct a detailed inspection of your property in St Austell to pinpoint how mice are getting in (ingress points), identify their food sources, and determine the extent of the infestation.
- Targeted Treatment: We use a combination of professional-grade, tamper-resistant bait stations and highly effective traps, placed strategically to ensure swift eradication.
- Proofing Advice: A critical part of our service is advising on and implementing proofing measures to prevent mice from returning.
Our RSPH-qualified technicians have the expertise to get to the root of your mouse problem, not just treat the symptoms.
