For many homeowners the first indication there is an issue with mice is when you see one run across the kitchen floor. It’s usually a bit of a shock but relatively harmless. However, if you’ve seen one mouse then you can bet there are plenty more, and they’re making your house their home.
That’s not a good thing. Mice carry an array of diseases, but, they can also cause significant issues to your home, most of which won’t be visible. Although the damage may not be visible, it is likely to be costly to repair. That’s why you need to get the pest control experts in as soon as possible. They’ll be able to set traps to catch and kill the invaders.
Of course, a good pest control service will also locate the nest and ensure all the mice have been killed or removed. In addition, they’ll help you to locate the mice entry points and seal them up.
That will leave you to assess the damage caused by your furry invaders.
Wood Holes
Mice have great teeth and are happy to chew through wood in order to access food. You may think your food is safe in the cupboard but, if the mice can smell it, they’ll chew through the wood to get to it.
This can mean damage to your flooring or furnishings, in extreme cases, they can even damage timbers that are essential to the structural integrity of your home.
Damp
Mice tend to urinate and drop waste as they run around your floors and surfaces, contact with their waste can be just as harmful as being bitten by them or preparing food on a surface they’ve walked on.
But, the bigger issue is that mice tend to urinate in dark corners. If you have several mice urinating in the same place it’s going to start smelling. You’re also going to be looking at damp damage, potentially rotting your floor, which will be a costly repair.
Wiring
Once mice have found a house that has food, water, and warmth, they’ll be eager to create their nest. To do this they use a variety of different materials, and it’s not always soft cushioning. In fact, mice generally find the sheathing n your electrical wires to be useful when creating a nest. Of course, chewing through this sheathing leaves your wires exposed and dramatically increases the risk of shorts in your electrical circuits. It can even be the cause of a fire.
You’ll need your electrical inspected regularly by a qualified electrician and have an extra check after a mouse issue. If you’re lucky you can replace sections of your electricity instead of having to re-wire your entire house.
Insulation
When the mice are moving around inside your walls they are creating tunnels, allowing them safe passage around your home. While doing this they will damage your insulation and even the wooden studs in your walls. This can lead to an increase in energy bills and even a need to replace the internal walls.
That’s why you need to take action quickly if you even think you have a mouse issue.
If you are expecting a baby, you are probably very excited. You are preparing to welcome a new person to the world, and that is something to celebrate. However, you may also be stressed with everything that you have to do to get ready for the baby. Keep these considerations at the top of your priority list as you prepare.
You should seek medical advice throughout your pregnancy, whether it be from a doctor or a midwife. If you are not currently seeing a professional, make an appointment today. Prenatal medical experts help to ensure that you stay safe and that any health issues that arise are dealt with immediately. You also need to decide what kind of medical help you will use during the birth. You may give birth at your hospital, or you may seek an alternative such as a birthing center Tampa. Check with your insurance company to see what services are covered with your plan.
If you are currently employed, check your employer’s parental leave policy. If you will have to return to work soon after the baby arrives, you will need to have daycare or babysitting lined up as soon as possible. Family and friends can help you while you are home and maybe even provide full-time childcare. Most working parents must pay a professional, though, and you should consider your finances and your options months in advance of when you will start to need assistance.
Babies can be breastfed or bottle-fed. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages based on your lifestyle. Before the baby comes, speak to your doctor or midwife about which option you want to try so that you can buy formula, a breast pump or any other supplies you may need.
Whether you are a first-time parent or a veteran, expecting a new baby is joyful and stressful. Prioritize these tasks and you will find that the rest of your preparations are much easier to accomplish.
