🐭 October in Southern Idaho means cooler nights — and mice looking for a warm place to nest.
House mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime, which means even small gaps around pipes, vents, or your foundation can become an open door.
Here are a few signs you may have a mouse problem:
• Droppings along walls, in cabinets, or under sinks
• Chewed food packaging, wiring, or insulation
• Scratching or scurrying sounds, especially at night
• Nesting materials like shredded paper or fabric in hidden spaces
A few prevention tips for Magic Valley homeowners:
✔ Seal gaps around pipes, cables, and vents with steel wool or caulk
✔ Keep firewood and debris stacked away from your home's foundation
✔ Store food in sealed containers
✔ Check your garage door seal — mice can slip under worn weatherstripping
