Photo Album: Easy mice entry to Spring Lake, NJ home.
Sealed under stoop to stop mice in Spring Lake.
With mice infestations, it is critical to locate and seal potential entry points. Otherwise, even if you manage to capture all of the mice inside the home, more mice will keep on coming.

A thorough inspection is critical around the home's perimeter. Mice commonly enter homes through basements, crawl spaces, and garages. Once inside, they make their way into wall voids, so they can travel freely without detection while foraging for food and water. Here, I found numerous entry points where mice could easily make their way into the basement. I also sealed openings around window frames, under the front entry stoop, and along the edges of the Bilco cellar door.
