Start with your evidence

Choose the right next step

You should not need to understand pest-control terminology before asking for help. Choose the situation closest to yours.

I saw one mouse

One sighting cannot establish that only one mouse is present. Tell us where and when it happened and send any photographs.

Request Inspection

I found droppings

Photograph the evidence before safe cleaning and tell us whether new droppings return in the same area.

Send Dropping Photos

The mice came back

Previous bait may have reduced activity without resolving concealed entry routes. We investigate why the property remains accessible.

Request a Proper Solution

I hear scratching

Tell us the room, time and exact location. Mice, rats, squirrels and birds can create different sounds inside buildings.

I need proofing

Kitchen proofing starts from £489 and whole-flat proofing from £890, with a minimum 12-month guarantee on agreed work.

It is a business

We provide discreet treatment, proofing and reports for hotels, restaurants, shops, offices, HMOs and managed properties.

Before we inspect: do not seal every hole, move dry droppings with a vacuum, add DIY poison or place glue traps. Photograph the evidence and ask us for property-specific advice.
Everything included for £289

Complete Mice Control — Not Bait and Leave

The standard residential price covers a complete programme within the agreed scope. The technician investigates the property, implements appropriate control, seals suitable minor routes, returns and reports.

1. Detailed inspection

We inspect relevant kitchens, sinks, pipework, accessible appliance voids, kickboards, cabinets, wall-to-floor junctions, skirting, utility spaces and other areas where evidence has appeared.

2. Professional assessment

We assess whether the evidence is consistent with mice, the likely activity level, food and water sources, concealed routes, neighbouring connections, earlier treatments and risks involving occupants or pets.

3. Appropriate control measures

Depending on the inspection, we may use professional traps, monitoring, secure professional bait where justified, physical removal and targeted sanitation measures.

4. Small accessible hole sealing

Where suitable minor entry points can be reached and sealed safely during the standard visit, this work is included. Materials are selected for the opening and surface.

5. Follow-up and cleaning support

We return to check for fresh evidence, assess control points and proofing, adjust the plan and assist with reasonable accessible dropping removal and surface disinfection where agreed and safely achievable.

6. Written photographic report

You receive written findings showing relevant evidence, measures installed, entry points sealed, further recommendations and matters requiring a landlord, freeholder or another trade.

Exceptional value: £289 is not a premium surcharge. It is a clear fixed standard residential price for inspection, control, suitable minor accessible proofing, a second visit and written photographic reporting.

Fast action with verification

Our Two-Visit Mice-Control Process

We work to stop the active problem as quickly as the property allows. First-visit resolution is possible in suitable cases, but verification remains part of the service.

1

Inspect and control

We confirm the evidence, inspect active routes, implement suitable control measures and seal clear minor entry points where it is appropriate to do so immediately.

2

Monitor and report

You record sightings and photograph fresh evidence, keep food secured, avoid disturbing equipment and follow the written aftercare instructions.

3

Return and verify

We check for fresh signs, inspect control points and proofing, adjust measures, assist with accessible cleaning where needed and document the outcome.

Can mice be stopped during Visit One?

Yes. If activity is localised and mice are using only a few clear accessible openings, the immediate activity and those routes can sometimes be dealt with at the first attendance.

The second visit remains included. We do not use an early success as an excuse to omit the check that confirms it.

VISIT 2
ALWAYS
INCLUDED
Do not judge a service by visit count alone. Two or three appointments that consist only of placing untouched bait may achieve less than an inspection-led first visit that controls activity, seals the routes and is followed by verification.

Specialist Mouse Proofing London

Treatment controls current activity. Proofing protects the agreed area against suitable entry and travel routes. For a fast durable outcome, both parts must be planned correctly.

Kitchen proofing from £489

We may move suitable freestanding appliances, remove accessible kickboards and inspect beneath units, pipe penetrations, cabinet edges and wall-to-floor junctions.

  • Defined kitchen scope
  • Specialist rodent-resistant materials
  • Key findings photographed
  • Written report
  • Minimum 12-month guarantee*

Whole-flat proofing from £890

We expand the agreed inspection beyond the kitchen to suitable bathroom, utility, boiler, hallway, room and service routes throughout a standard flat.

  • Agreed accessible routes
  • Kitchen and connected internal areas
  • Several materials where required
  • Photographic documentation
  • Minimum 12-month guarantee*

Specialist materials matched to the opening

Expanding foam alone is not a reliable answer where mice can gnaw through or travel around it. Depending on the surface and ventilation requirements, suitable work may combine:

Metal meshFitted metal platesRodent-resistant fillersDurable sealantsDoor protectionVentilation-safe mesh
Mice can enter through openings of approximately 6 mm. Proper proofing means inspecting the concealed routes behind appliances, cabinets, pipes, services and junctions—not filling the first visible gap.

Signs You May Have Mice

One sign rarely explains the entire problem. Location, freshness and repeated evidence help us identify active routes.

Live sightings

Mice move quickly and often stay close to protected edges, cabinets and voids. A single sighting cannot measure the infestation.

Small dark droppings

Common locations include cupboards, beneath sinks, behind appliances, under kitchen units and along repeated travel routes.

Scratching or movement

Light rustling or running may come from walls, ceilings, floors, cabinets or lofts, especially when the property is quiet.

Gnawing and damage

Fresh damage to packaging, wiring, insulation, timber edges or soft material can help locate an active route.

Nesting material

Shredded paper, fabric, insulation or packaging may accumulate inside warm protected spaces and appliances.

Odour or staining

Established activity may produce a musky smell or urine staining. Odour alone does not confirm whether activity is current.

Mouse or rat? Compare your evidence with our rat-versus-mouse identification guide or send clear photographs before cleaning.
Mouse droppings, gnaw marks and a small entry gap around kitchen pipework
Droppings, fresh gnawing and small gaps around services can indicate active mouse routes.
Built for London properties

Mice in Kitchens, Walls, Floors and Blocks of Flats

A clean flat can still experience mice when pipe routes, shared risers or connected voids remain open elsewhere in the building.

Kitchens and appliances

We inspect suitable gaps beneath sinks, around waste and water pipes, appliance voids, kickboards, cabinets, boilers, vents and wall-to-floor junctions.

Walls and ceilings

Random bait in the visible room may achieve little if mice travel through a separate service or wall void. Evidence and access determine the control position.

Suspended floors

Mice may travel between rooms beneath floorboards and emerge around pipes, damaged boards or cabinet edges. Sealing only one emergence point can divert activity.

Connected flats

Shared risers, ducts, refuse areas, plant rooms and service cupboards can connect many homes. Written evidence helps landlords and building managers understand the wider scope.

Homes, landlords and managed buildings

Residents

Receive clear findings, immediate control, minor accessible sealing, aftercare and follow-up rather than unexplained equipment.

Landlords and agents

Photographic reports distinguish resident actions from structural, appliance, communal and repair recommendations.

Freeholders and managers

Repeated reports in several units may need a coordinated inspection of risers, refuse areas, service cupboards and connected voids.

Real Bon Accord case study

One of Our Most Severe Mouse Infestations — W2 Tower Block

The property and findings

We attended a first-floor flat in a residential W2 block of more than 20 storeys. Inside this single flat, we found multiple mouse nests, extensive contamination, appliance activity and a nest inside the oven.

More than ten mice were removed from the flat. In over 15 years of professional pest-control work, this was one of the largest infestations we had encountered inside one residence.

A building-wide cause

The block had reportedly been without an effective building pest-control contract for more than a year. Evidence indicated extensive activity through connected services and communal areas—potentially involving hundreds of mice across the building.

This explained why an individual resident could not solve the problem through housekeeping or isolated bait placement.

Bon Accord’s work

  • Detailed flat inspection
  • Nest and harbourage identification
  • Physical removal of accessible mice and nesting
  • Appropriate control and contamination management
  • Route and proofing investigation
  • Photographic reporting and building recommendations
  • Follow-up support

The result

The severe activity inside the client’s flat was brought under control, accessible mice and nests were removed and the resident received clear evidence that coordinated building-level action was required.

This case shows why difficult infestations require investigation, physical work, cleaning, route control, proofing and persistence—not poison alone.

Health, safety and practical support

Dropping Removal, Children, Pets and Responsible Control

Cleaning mouse contamination

Do not sweep or vacuum dry droppings, urine residue or nesting material because contaminated particles may become airborne. Photograph the evidence, keep children and pets away, use suitable protection and follow damp cleaning and disinfection guidance.

Where a resident needs help, the included follow-up may assist with reasonable accessible dropping removal and surface disinfection when it can be completed safely during the scheduled attendance.

Heavy contamination, inaccessible voids, hoarding or specialist deep cleaning may require a separate quotation.

Children, pets and vulnerable occupants

Tell us before treatment about children, pets, pregnancy, elderly or vulnerable occupants and relevant health concerns. We select and position control measures according to the property and risk assessment.

Professional bait, where justified, is managed according to authorised instructions. No responsible company should describe every rodenticide use as completely risk-free.

Do not use DIY rodent glue traps. Unlicensed rodent glue-trap use is illegal in England.

Before attendance: send photographs, keep food in rigid containers, clear reasonable access around affected cupboards, tell us whether appliances can move safely and disclose all earlier poisons, traps or treatments.

Read our guides to rodent droppings and safe cleaning and humane mouse trapping and methods to avoid.

Mice Control London FAQs

Open any question below for concise information about visits, prices, proofing, guarantees, cleaning and safety.

Bon Accord’s fixed standard residential mice-control programme costs £289. It includes inspection, assessment, appropriate control measures, suitable small accessible hole sealing, a scheduled follow-up and a written photographic report. Large, unusually complex and commercial properties are quoted individually.

Sometimes. If activity is localised and there are only a few clear accessible entry holes, we may be able to control the mice and seal those routes during the first attendance. The second visit remains included so we can check for fresh evidence and confirm the result.

A quiet property does not by itself prove that every route is inactive. The follow-up lets us check for fresh droppings or sightings, assess control points, inspect completed minor proofing, assist with reasonable accessible cleaning where needed and document the result.

The standard programme includes a detailed inspection, activity assessment, suitable traps, monitoring or professional bait where appropriate, small accessible hole sealing, a scheduled follow-up, reasonable accessible cleaning assistance where agreed and written reporting with relevant photographs.

Suitable minor accessible hole sealing is included within the standard service. Specialist kitchen, whole-flat or structural proofing is separate because it can require appliances and kickboards to be moved, concealed junctions to be accessed and multiple routes to be protected with specialist materials.

Kitchen mouse proofing starts from £489. Whole-flat mouse proofing starts from £890. Larger houses, commercial premises, managed blocks and complex properties are assessed and quoted individually.

Qualifying standard residential mice-control normally includes a three-month mice-elimination guarantee. The exact start and expiry dates are shown in the written quotation or service report and the guarantee remains subject to the access, reporting, aftercare and structural conditions.

Yes. Agreed kitchen and whole-flat mouse proofing normally carries a minimum 12-month guarantee. If qualifying activity is reported, we investigate it; if mice used a point proofed by Bon Accord and the conditions were met, we repair or reinforce that work without an additional charge.

Professional bait may be used when justified by the inspection and risk assessment. We may also use traps, monitoring, physical removal, cleaning, entry-point sealing and specialist proofing. We do not apply one automatic method to every property.

Tell us about children, pets and vulnerable occupants before treatment. We select and position control measures according to the property and risk assessment and provide clear written instructions. No responsible provider should describe every rodenticide use as completely risk-free.

Reasonable accessible dropping removal and surface disinfection can be assisted with during the included follow-up when the resident needs help and the work can be completed safely within the scheduled attendance. Heavy contamination, inaccessible voids or specialist deep cleaning may require a separate quotation.

No. Do not sweep or vacuum dry mouse droppings, urine residue or nesting material because contaminated particles may become airborne. Photograph the evidence first, use suitable protection and damp cleaning and disinfection methods, or ask us for assistance.

Yes. Pipe routes, service risers, wall and floor voids, ducts, communal cupboards and refuse areas can connect multiple flats. Repeated activity may require cooperation from the landlord, freeholder or building manager.

Yes. Bon Accord provides discreet commercial inspection, treatment, proofing, monitoring and photographic reporting for hotels, Michelin-recognised and independent restaurants, shops, HMOs, offices and managed properties throughout London.

Signs you may have mice

Seeing one mouse does not always prove a large infestation, but it should be treated seriously. Mice usually avoid open areas, so repeat sightings, fresh droppings or scratching noises suggest the problem is not isolated.

Treatment vs mouse proofing

Treatment and proofing are different jobs. Treatment deals with current activity. Proofing addresses the access routes that allow mice to enter or return. For repeat mouse problems, proofing is often the most important long-term step.

Mice control for London flats, houses and businesses

Flats and apartments

Mice can move through shared pipework, risers, ceiling voids and gaps between units. Bon Accord can help tenants, landlords and managing agents identify likely routes and next steps.

Houses and terraces

London houses are often affected by gaps around external walls, pipework, air bricks, kitchen extensions, subfloor voids and rear access areas.

Commercial premises

Restaurants, cafés, offices, hotels and retail premises need prompt, discreet control with practical hygiene and proofing recommendations.

Mice control prices in London

Prices should be clear and honest. Mice control is normally priced according to property type, access, level of activity and whether proofing is required.

ServiceTypical starting priceNotes
Mice control for flatsFrom £289Usually based on two visits
Mice control for housesFrom £289Final quote depends on property layout and activity
Commercial mice controlFrom £119Depends on site type, contract needs and access
Rodent proofingQuoted separatelyDepends on number of gaps, access and materials

Many cases improve quickly, but the correct number of visits depends on activity, access routes and whether proofing is needed.

We thought we had bedbugs but could find no evidence apart from what we thought were bites. I called Bon Accord and Gabriel was there within a couple of hours. He told us we had carpet beetle. Finding the evidence and showing us photos of the skin reaction which was exactly what we had. He advised and returned at a time to suit us to spray which was done thoroughly and efficiently. No sign of the little critters returning. Thank you Gabriel.

Gabriel turned up with an hours notice one evening and immediately identified the issued. He works efficiently and professionally throughout with timely follow-ups to ensure the problem was resolved. Once completed he was kind enough to continue to check in to see that the issue had gone. Having had Rentokil previously that spent two years doing very little this was a complete breathe of fresh air and solved the problem in less than two weeks. We are grateful and would highly recommend his services.

Mice Treatment And Control

Despite having a lifespan of just 18 months or so, mice can cause enormous problems for anyone whose buildings they decide to call home. It is rare to find only one mouse in a property. Thanks to the prodigious rate of multiplication, mice are able to reproduce all year round. 

How many mice in a litter

A single female can produce anywhere between five and ten letters every year. The average is six to eight babies in each litter. A starting pool of just six mice can quickly multiply into more than 60 in only a quarter of a year. Bon Accord London local pest control specialist can help you with any type of mice infestation same day 24/7.

Mice spreading diseases

Setting aside their propensity for spreading diseases, mice can also cause enormous structural problems to any home. To say that a mouse can burn your house down is no exaggeration. Mice chewing through electrical wires behind walls and in attics has been known to cause house fires in the past. 

Mice are not fussy about what they chew through. They will happily gnaw on your walls and other materials to keep their teeth short. They will also eat through anything that stands between them and where they want to go. If you looking for proffesional pest control near you Bon Accord is your local expert.

How To Spot A Mouse Infestation What Problems Do Mice Cause? How To Get Rid Of Mice

The one saving grace of a mice infestation is that there are several telltale signs. A mouse infestation will create a distinct smell, as well as numerous visual clues. If you see small dark droppings around your property, or greasy marks along the walls and skirting boards, these can be indicative of a mouse infestation. Mice also like to chew their way through numerous materials; their gnaw marks are another dead giveaway.

Mice droppings

On average, you can expect around 50 to 80 droppings per night if there’s an infestation in your home. These tend to be spread randomly throughout any properties where the mice are present, but are generally concentrated inside cupboards and along skirting boards.

The grease marks that might leave behind result from them brushing their bodies against walls and skirting boards as they scurry around the property. Any smears, especially those located near to holes and other crevices that mice might tunnel through, are a clear indication of their presence. With more severe infestations, this body grease is often combined with urine and dirt. These can form small but distinct mounds of around 4 cm in height.

Mice Control And Proofing 24/7 

Mice are also quite noisy pests. You will often hear them before you see them due to the noise they make when scratching, scurrying, or chewing their way through your property. If you hear any noises coming from behind your walls, beneath your floors, or any other hidden corners of your property, there’s a good chance you have a mouse infestation.

Mouse nests

 

Another clear indication that you have a mouse infestation is the presence of nests and the debris associated with them. Mice build their nest from a variety of shredded materials. Just about anything soft and shreddable can be used in the construction of a mouse nest. If you notice any scraps of material, or you find paper and fabric that looks like a mouse has been chewing on it, these can be indications of a mouse’s construction project.

Mice urinate frequently. Their urine gives off a strong and distinct odour, meaning you may well smell them before you see them. Mouse urine smells strongly of ammonia, with the smell being most pungent nearer to the urine.

 London's #1 MICE CONTROL COMPANY

The most pressing issue with a mouse infestation is the potential for the spread of disease. Mice can carry a range of pathogens, contaminating any foodstuffs that they come into contact with. Mouse urine and faeces are known vectors for several nasty diseases.

But diseases are not the only issue that mice can cause. They can also cause significant damage to your property. Mice love to chew their way through anything that stands between them and food or shelter. You'd be surprised at just what they can bite their way through when they want to. Floorboards, pipes, doors, insulation; none of these are a match for a determined mouse.

Most of the damage that mice cause to your property is in service of nest building. However, they will also chew, scratch, and gnaw away at materials to make themselves tunnels and enable themselves to move more freely throughout your home or business.

Seeing evidence of nesting mice in your home can be alarming. Still, it is nothing compared to the shock and worry that business owners face when they discover a mouse infestation within their place of business. For any catering or hospitality businesses, the sight of even a single mouse spells a PR disaster. 

It goes without saying that if any of your guests or customers become ill because of a mouse infestation within your business, you will have to answer some very difficult questions. You can’t afford to take any chances here; if you suspect that your company has a mouse problem, dealing with it needs to be your top priority.

BON ACCORD: London's #1 PEST CONTROL COMPANY

There are a range of DIY products on the market that you can use to rid yourself of a minor mouse infestation. As well as the traditional mousetrap, which will end the life of any mouse unlucky enough to trigger it, there are now a number of more humane options. 

For example, electronic mouse traps, which can either trap or kill mice humanely and reliably, are an increasingly popular option. These newer mouse traps are ideal for environments where small children and pets are present. You don't want your child or your pet to trigger a spring-loaded mousetrap accidentally. Electronic mouse traps are safe to leave lying around your home or business and are more reliable in terms of getting the job done. 

But the only surefire way to rid yourself of a mouse infestation entirely is to call in a professional pest control team like Bon Accord.

At Bon Accord, we offer a professional and guaranteed mouse control service that will keep you safe from pesky pests. Our team of experts can work with your home or business in order to help prevent future infestations before they happen!

How Can You Prevent Mice From Nesting In Your Property In London?

There are several simple things that anyone can do to reduce the likelihood of finding mice in their property. Mice are crafty and nimble creatures; if there’s a way into your property, you can be sure they’ll find it. Mice are attracted to discarded food. The most important thing you can do to keep them at bay is to secure your rubbish properly and ensure your bins are sealed. Keeping the grass in your lawn short will also remove an important source of shelter for them and make it harder for them to hide.

How to kill mice

Whether in your home or business, you can’t take any chances when it comes to mouse infestations. If you suspect you might have an infestation on your hands, contact Bon Accord rodent pest control immediately to discuss how we can help eliminate the problem and control the mice. We are your local pest control company.

Mice generally live about two years, with some dying within the first few months and others living up to 18 months.

A mouse is capable of birthing when it’s two months old and can have babies 6-10 times per year.

Mice are tiny creatures that can carry germs in their urine, causing illness and allergies. They also spread diseases through ticks, fleas or mites

Mice can be very pesky creatures, but they are not all that vicious. In fact most mice will only bite if threatened or cornered and even then it’s rare for them to do so!

We know that every pest infestation is different. That’s why our team of experts needs to conduct an inspection before providing you with a quote for treatment, so we can account for factors like location and size as well as others relating back specifically towards what caused this problem in the first place – eg: improper sanitation habits or food storage where some pests may thrive more than others due their preference on certain types/amounts

We thought we had bedbugs but could find no evidence apart from what we thought were bites. I called Bon Accord and Gabriel was there within a couple of hours. He told us we had carpet beetle. Finding the evidence and showing us photos of the skin reaction which was exactly what we had. He advised and returned at a time to suit us to spray which was done thoroughly and efficiently. No sign of the little critters returning. Thank you Gabriel.

Gabriel was absolutely wonderful, a real life saver when I found a mouse by my bed at 10pm. He came in less than an hour and was able to catch the mouse and put my mind at rest so I could go to sleep! Highly recommend, fab service and lovely people.

Gabriel turned up with an hours notice one evening and immediately identified the issued. He works efficiently and professionally throughout with timely follow-ups to ensure the problem was resolved. Once completed he was kind enough to continue to check in to see that the issue had gone. Having had Rentokil previously that spent two years doing very little this was a complete breathe of fresh air and solved the problem in less than two weeks. We are grateful and would highly recommend his services.

We were lucky to have found Bon Accord, they responded very fast to our request and Gabriel was very helpful and informative. He made several visits and did his absolute best until the mice problem we had was gone. Highly recommended.
