Mice Control High Wycombe

Mice Control in High Wycombe

High Wycombe has the densest mix of flatted and shared accommodation on our patch, a university, and a lot of older terraced housing on the valley sides. Shared buildings change a mouse job completely.

The recurring theme is that the mice are living in a part of the building that belongs to nobody in particular.

Ring 01908 465226 and tell us what you have seen in High Wycombe.

HMOs

Shared Houses and Shared Kitchens

In a house in multiple occupation the shared kitchen is the food source and the landing, stair and service runs are the route. One room reports mice; the population is in the fabric of the house.

Treating the room that complained is why these jobs recur. We would normally want to survey the whole property and treat and proof it as one job, and give the landlord a written account covering the entry points, which are usually repairs not pest control.

Blocks

Risers, Voids and Communal Bin Stores

In a block the routes are the service riser, the void above a suspended ceiling and the holes drilled through party walls for pipework. The food source is very often the communal bin store, which is nobody's job and everybody's problem.

If you are a leaseholder being told the problem is inside your flat, ask for the riser and the bin store to be inspected. Where the evidence sits there we write it down, and that note is generally what moves a managing agent.

What we ask

Before We Come to High Wycombe

Tell us whether it is a flat, a shared house or a family home, who manages the building, and where the bins are. That decides most of what we need to know before we arrive.

What we are looking for is the route, not just the mice. Treatment deals with what is inside now; finding and closing the gap is what finishes it.

If it turns out to be rats rather than mice, that is treated differently and has its own page: rat control in High Wycombe.
