That gap beneath the garage door has been on your “I’ll get to it” list for months. A mouse doesn’t know that. It just sees a way inside.
As fall settles into Lebanon, TN, a quick walk around your home is worth moving up the list. Look closely where pipes enter exterior walls, check worn door seals, and make sure vents have intact covers. Small maintenance issues are much easier to handle before you’re hearing scratching behind the wall.
While you’re at it, check a few everyday habits.
• Is the pet food stored in a sealed container?
• Does the garage door stay open while you work outside?
• Is firewood stacked right against the house?
