The presence of mice within a building can have dire consequences for both reputation and structural integrity. Constant gnawing is a necessity for mice as their teeth grow aggressively throughout their lives. Unfortunately, they often direct their destructive tendencies towards pipework, electrical cables, and even building materials, leading to potential fires, floods, and costly repair bills. That's why Obsidian Pest Control provides an immediate response for eliminating mice and rodents across the greater London area.

Mice also serve as vectors for disease, carrying a range of illnesses including tuberculosis, salmonella, gastroenteritis, rat-bite fever, leptospirosis (Weil's disease), and many others, some of which can be fatal. Their droppings and fur can contaminate food preparation surfaces and supplies. Additionally, rodents are incontinent, leaving behind waste wherever they roam.

Moreover, mice reproduce at an alarming rate. It's estimated that if two mice were left in a building with a food source for twelve months, their population would skyrocket to 2000.

Due to the risks posed by rodents, many insurance companies no longer offer coverage against rodent damage. Obsidian technicians are trained in cutting-edge rodent pest control treatments for mice and rats. While the use of rodenticidal contact dusts, gels, baits, and traps can effectively control ongoing infestations when applied professionally, it's essential to complement these measures with effective proofing methods to prevent reinfestation. 

Obsidian provides comprehensive reports on proofing measures and has developed proven rodent pest control programs to implement them effectively.
