Sanitation is a crucial aspect of controlling and preventing mouse infestations in homes and other buildings. In addition to regular treatment options such as poison bait stations, maintaining good sanitation practices can help to reduce the number of mice that are attracted to an area and can prevent them from establishing a breeding population.
One of the main ways that sanitation can help to control mouse populations is by eliminating food sources that attract mice. Mice are highly opportunistic and will eat almost anything that they can find, including crumbs, bits of food, and even non-food items like soap or toothpaste. By keeping surfaces clean and free of food debris, you can make your home less appealing to mice and reduce the chances of an infestation.

Sanitation can also help to reduce the number of hiding places that mice can use to build their nests and breed. Mice are small and agile creatures that can squeeze into very tight spaces, so it is important to make sure that all openings and crevices around your home are properly sealed. This includes sealing gaps around pipes and vents, as well as making sure that doors and windows are properly fitted and do not have any cracks or holes.
In addition to these measures, it is important to regularly clean and disinfect areas where mice may be present. Mice can carry diseases and parasites, and their droppings can contaminate surfaces and cause illness. By using disinfectants and properly disposing of any waste or debris, you can help to reduce the risk of exposure to these hazards.
