Mice Control by Antiva
Mice can move through tiny gaps, nest inside wall cavities and lofts, and contaminate kitchens, stock rooms, and work areas. Antiva provides professional mice control across Edinburgh, the Lothians, and Glasgow for homes, landlords, restaurants, offices, hotels, care settings, and schools.
Fast treatment matters, but so does proofing. We identify where mice are active, how they are getting in, and what needs to change to prevent repeat infestations.
Signs of Mice in a Property
Small dark droppings in cupboards, drawers, lofts, or behind appliances
Scratching or rustling in walls, ceilings, or under kitchen units
Gnawed packaging, insulation, cables, or timber
Nesting material such as shredded paper or fabric
A stale smell in enclosed spaces
Pet interest around kickboards, voids, or cupboards
If you are seeing droppings in a kitchen or food area, arrange professional mice control promptly.
Our Mice Control Process
Inspection - locate activity, nesting areas, routes, and entry points
Treatment - use targeted control methods suited to the property
Proofing advice - identify gaps around pipes, doors, vents, and services
Follow-up - check progress and refine the control plan where needed
Prevention - advise on hygiene, storage, building maintenance, and monitoring
Mice can squeeze through very small gaps, so proofing is often the difference between a one-off treatment and a recurring problem.
Mice Control for Homes
We treat mice in kitchens, lofts, wall cavities, cupboards, garages, and outbuildings. We work around occupied homes and provide clear safety guidance before any treatment begins.
Common residential issues include mice in kitchen units, mice in loft insulation, mice entering around pipework, and repeat activity in tenements or terraced housing.

Mice Control FAQs
Are mice likely to leave on their own?
No. If mice have food, shelter, and access, they usually stay and breed.
Can you find where mice are getting in?
Yes. Inspection focuses on entry points around pipework, doors, vents, wall cavities, drains, and service routes.
Is mice treatment suitable for occupied homes?
Treatments are selected for the property and explained before work starts, including any precautions for children, pets, or vulnerable occupants.
If you have signs of mice, book a mice inspection or check local treatment availability.
