Field mice in the house?

21 15:32:07

Question
We discovered a big problem with field mice this spring.  We set out bait and filled in holes.  Nightly I hear a squeaking noise in the bedroom.  Could a mouse be living in the closet or bedroom, coming out at night and squeeking? I have no other explanation

Answer
Dear Kathy,

Yes.  A field mouse may have decided to make your house its home.  It's pretty easy for mice to get between the walls in most houses, so it might not be as simple as it living in the closet.  If there is squeaking, there is probably more than one.

squeaks n giggles,
