A week ago I saw one small very cute mouse in the house, I didn't mind it because it was just getting some rotten food in the garbage can but this week I saw two of them and they are now giving us problems.
They started to destroy things like the wooden wall they're scratching it to make a place to stay and bit some of the clothes.I didn't expected it to turn out like this.
My goodness if I had gotten rid of it the first time I saw it we won't have this problem now.

If you have seen one, then you know there are more. If you have seen two there are going to be many, MANY more. A female mouse or rat can have around 11 pups every 14 to 17 days.
Please use snap traps or live traps to get rid of your rat problem. Glue traps and poision are HORRIBLE ways for a rat to have to die.

they'll also start knawing through wiring and cause all kinds of problems. you need to get rid of them and also not give them a reason to come back. if they are getting food from the garbage then you need to seal it up so they can't get in - also make sure all your food is in mouse proof containers and there are not any crumbs lying around. to get rid of them you can kill them (not with glue traps), catch them alive and put them well away from your house, or borrow a cat or dog to scare them off. some people find sonic deterrants work too, others don't.

If there's one, then there's definitely more. I don't think that you only have two. I believe there are more. They multiply fast and the next thing you know, they'll show up almost everywhere in your house. Get rid of them as early as possible. Get some help from pest control services. ;)

I think for now there's only the two of them but I really believe that they will multiply soon enough that's why today i'll be scouting for some anti-rats when do dour shopping I really hate specially when the lights are off they just go everywhere they want.
Oh I started noticing them when we got home from a long vacation for about two weeks
