Instructor: Stephen Vantassel

One of the challenges with house mice is that clients don't take house mice seriously. It's amazing how people will move heaven and earth when rats are around, but when it comes to mice they will simply say "oh, it's just a mouse!" This course will help educate applicators on the risks of allowing house mice to remain in a structure. 

After completing this course participants will be able to:

• Identify preferred habitats of mice
• Describe several IPM methods for controlling mice
• Describe the differences in mouse traps and outline which trap is best in a given situation
