Do I have mice? Mice Removal in Toronto
No one wants mice in their home and yet it still remains a common problem. Mice are pests all year round but are mostly a problem in the winter and spring months. Here, they seek shelter during the cold months and feed on food sources located within the home.
Common points of entry are the garage, holes in around the outside of the house, and doors being left open. Open doors are particularly a large problem for commercial businesses. Employees and contractors are constantly coming and going and thus, let mice into the premises.
As for the home, a homeowner must watch for signs of droppings. There are typically located behind the fridge, under sinks, and in the basement. In addition, food will be eaten and often times, boxes will look chewed.
Mice can pose serious problems in home if they start to chew electrical wires. Although this is uncommon, it is something that should be watched for.
Mice removal in Toronto and the GTA is a common problem and should be treated by a professional before the infestation becomes too large to handle.

How to Choose the Right Pest Control Company
If you have a pest problem, then choosing the right pest control company in Toronto can be quite hard. Simply googling Pest Control Toronto can be overwhelming. Before you start making those calls to rid your home and business of pests, here are some things to consider:
1. Ask If They Have Insurance
Pest Control in Toronto is a highly competitive business and is very easy to start. Because of this, not all businesses are operating legally. In Ontario, a Pest Control business must be covered by insurance. This not only is to protect its customers but also, it ensures that they have the experience necessary in carrying out the job. A company cannot charge for pest control in Toronto if they do not have the proper license. Vise versa, they cannot have a license if they do not have insurance. Always ensure that your pest control company is fully insured.
2. Do They Provide You With Safety Information?
Sometimes, pest control in Toronto involves the use of some type of chemical or pesticide application. If this is the case (and I say IF because there are often other options) then you as the customer must be fully informed. This means proper instruction on what do to after pesticide application and being provided with a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). An MSDS informs the user and customer of things such as the active ingredient, manufacturer name, and most importantly safety guidelines and first aid instructions. An accredited business and one that takes pride in their work will always keep their customers informed.
3. Is Cheap Too Cheap?
Small and inexperienced companies will sometimes undercharge for the work to be done. Granted you may save a few bucks on treatment but you will be sacrificing experience and expertise. Often these companies are not accredited and will only lead to further unnecessary treatments. In addition, their lack in experience may be harmful as not all the necessary safety precautions are taken.
4. How Knowledgeable Are They?
Test the companies you call. Do a little research into what type of pest problem you have (i.e. google mice problems). See what type of treatment they offer you. A true professional will know everything there is to know about pest control in Toronto. Depending on the problem, sometimes pesticide application may not be the answer.
Pest Control in Toronto can be a very tricky business. Often people will pay whatever price is offered simply because they want to get rid of the problem. The old saying "buyer beware" remains true, especially in the pest removal business. Shop around and make sure you are really getting what you pay for. Remember, your safety is always first.
