Southern Ontario Currently Experiencing a Deer Mice Epidemic: All Wildlife Removal Inc. Warns Homeowners to Be on High Alert

Burlington, Ontario, December 20, 2016 (Newswire.com) - A deer mice epidemic is currently exploding in Southern Ontario and putting homeowners at risk, with approximately 6% of mice carrying hantavirus.

Hantavirus is a rare but serious virus that can cause a lung disease called hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), which can be lethal to those infected. Deer mice mainly live in rural and semi-rural areas, putting homeowners in Ontario’s cottage country on high alert.

"This epidemic should not be taken lightly. Whether it's contamination or damage, people need to know the mice population in your home must be permanently removed to protect both your family and your home."

Clancy McNamara, All Wildlife Removal Inc. Technician

Deer mice pose a health hazard to you and your family and a risk to the structure of your home. Since mice are such prolific breeders and can cause significant structural damage, the deer mice population must be permanently removed from affected homes.

It’s crucial that individuals experiencing mouse problems do not turn to temporary population control measures, like baits, traps, and poison. Such methods are ineffective, as they will never permanently address the issue or resolve the root cause of the problem.

Nancy Howe, a homeowner in Niagara Falls, said, “We contacted All Wildlife Removal about a year ago, and opted to go with a different approach. Recently, we noticed a terrible stench coming from our attic and finally decided to call the pros and deal with this permanently.”

“This epidemic should not be taken lightly,” said All Wildlife Removal Inc. technician Clancy McNamara. “Whether it’s contamination or damage, people need to know the mice population in your home must be permanently removed to protect both your family and your home.”

Population control measures won’t rectify a deer mice problem. Thus, homeowners suspecting they have deer mice in their home or cottage must be prepared to pay to resolve the issue. A permanent and humane exclusion service is the only effective solution.
