Even if homeowners do catch a sight of their mouse invader, it may only be for a split second and not enough to identify the species.
Luckily, Ehrlich’s rodent experts however have the expertise and know-how to help with identification, which will help to establish the right control method for your home or business and your particular mouse species.
