Mice problem in Seattle area homes crawl spaces?
Q. I am planning to buy a nice house in Redmond Ridge (Greater Seattle area). During the inspection, the inspector found mice activity in the crawl space under the house. I am afraid this can get out of control and destroy the ducting and the crawl space insulation and that the mice can potentially enter into the house itself. My realtor says it is a common problem and can be put under control by using regular pest control. Is there anyone who can say it is a common problem in Seattle area? Please answer ASAP. I need to make my decision soon.

A. It may be a common problem but you do not have to live with it? No. When buying a home, you get an inspection to help you evaluate the homes condition and what needs to be taken care of before it transfers to you. Mouse problems is a big problem. They are hard to get rid of and they multiply. It they are in the craw space they can get in the house if they are not already. If the home is vacant you wont see the signs of mice. Mice are troublesome for wiring, insulation, and your health. They can even have fleas and the Viruses that affect your health. You need to tell your Realtor to illiminate the problem before you close the deal. You will not sign papers until you get it re-inspected and the problem is gone. You do not want to take on… [cont.]

How to keep mice out of the engine compartment of my car or truck if it's parked outside?
Q. I have to park outside and I live in a wooded area. There are several mice around and they climb into the engine compartment and eat the insulation off the wiring.
Asked by DontheDandi - Thu Jul 27 22:13:33 2006 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Oh, that's bad, they can tear up a lot of stuff. The first thing I would advise to do is check around where you park your vehicle for anything that would attract them there. They are not normally attracted to a vehicle, but rather find it easy nesting because it is in close proximity to a food source. If you have food outside such as for a dog or cat, or garbage cans, or if you leave garbage or food in the vehicle itself. If you move these items inside or far away from the vehicle it may take care of your problem.

My big old house has no insulation?
Q. So we are getting it done. Problem? All of a sudden we are having problems with mice. The question is if we do the insulation and the mice are in the walls will they come inside of the house. I placed traps and caught a few since I haven't seen any more droppings.

A. sounds like you are getting your insulation in the walls as well as the ceiling.. A thorough job but a big one.. Your house will be so cosy.. Some insulation will in fact create a habitat for mice but if the correct type is used they will live elsewhere and leave the house.. Using Bait stations is the most effective way to rid your house of a mouse population. Traps will help however they only get some of them.. Blocking off as many holes as possible will also prevent those little critters from entering in the first instance..

A. Typically mobile home skirting is not insulated. It's basically an aesthetic item and at most, blocks wind. A mobile home relies on the insulation in the floor to block the cold from coming in under the house. Usually, the skirting has vents and the air will pass through. Now, I have seen a lot of unusual remedies in very cold locations like Wyoming and Montana in the winter. People have changed out the vented panels for solid in the winter and run a string of lights underneath their home to take the edge of the cold when the floor insulation just won't do the trick.

How can I insulate ceilings without major construction?

Upstairs is always pretty warm but we didn't find out until we heard mice scurrying and had the exterminator in and he told us the area wasn't insulated.

Perhaps install a door at the foot of the stairs and keep it closed when you want the first floor warmer. Good luck :)

Any tips on raising baby mice?
Q. I bought fuzzy mice for my snake, but when I got home, Taps (snake) had gone AWOL and now I have two baby mice that I don't want to starve to death. We've had them for three days, and have been feeding them every four hours with warmed up cow's milk. I've read alot about cow's milk being bad for them, but they don't seem dehydrated, they're very active, stumbling around the cage and all, and I can't find a way to get puppy or kitten milk. I wait an hour, then wipe their bellies so they potty. Their eyes aren't open yet, but they look like they're close to it (my gerbils had a litter a few months ago and we watched them grow, so I know how they look when they're about to open their eyes). I have them in a 1 gallon tank with pine chips on… [cont.]
