Professional Mouse Control in Essex & London

A mouse infestation can quickly become a serious problem for homeowners and businesses alike. While mice may appear small and harmless, they can cause significant damage to property, contaminate food supplies, spread bacteria, and reproduce rapidly if left untreated.

At Biochem, we provide professional mice control services throughout Essex and London, helping homeowners, landlords, property managers, and businesses eliminate mouse infestations safely and effectively. As a family-run business established in 1977, we have over 45 years of experience delivering trusted pest control solutions tailored to each property’s specific needs.

Whether you’ve spotted a mouse in your kitchen, heard scratching noises in your walls, or discovered evidence of mouse activity in your loft or workplace, our experienced pest control technicians can provide a fast and effective solution.

Why Are Mice a Problem?

Mice are among the most common pest infestations found in homes and commercial properties across Essex and London. Due to their small size, they can enter buildings through gaps as small as 6mm, allowing them to access properties with surprising ease. Once inside, mice can:

• • Contaminate food and food preparation areas

• • Damage electrical wiring and gnaw through wood, plastic, and insulation

• • Spread bacteria and disease and create unpleasant odours

• • Damage stock and stored goods

• • Reproduce rapidly, leading to larger infestations

A single pair of mice can quickly establish a colony, making early intervention essential to prevent the infestation from worsening.

Common Signs of a Mouse Infestation

Mice are often active at night, meaning many infestations go unnoticed until the problem becomes more severe. Common signs of mouse activity include:

• • Mouse droppings in cupboards, kitchens, lofts, or storage areas

• • Scratching or scurrying noises in walls, ceilings, or under floorboards

• • Gnaw marks on cables, woodwork, packaging, or furniture

• • Nesting materials such as shredded paper or insulation

• • Strong musky odours and grease marks along skirting boards and walls

• • Sightings of live or dead mice

If you notice any of these warning signs, it is important to arrange professional mouse pest control as soon as possible.

Where Do Mice Live?

Mice are highly adaptable and can thrive in a wide variety of environments. Common nesting locations include loft spaces, wall cavities, kitchens, utility rooms, garages, sheds, roof voids, under floorboards, commercial kitchens, warehouses, retail premises, and offices. Because mice can squeeze through extremely small openings, identifying entry points is a critical part of successful mice and rodent control.

Our Professional Mouse Control Process

At Biochem, we take a comprehensive approach to rodent control that focuses on both eliminating current infestations and preventing future problems.

• • Detailed Property Inspection — Our technicians carry out a thorough inspection to identify signs of mouse activity, nesting locations, entry points, food sources, and contributing environmental factors, enabling us to create a tailored treatment plan.

• • Mice Control Treatment — Professional mice removal using baiting programmes, secure trapping systems, monitoring stations, targeted control measures, and ongoing management plans. Every treatment is tailored to the level of infestation and requirements of the property.

• • Mouse Proofing & Prevention — We provide advice on sealing access points, improving housekeeping measures, managing waste, protecting food storage areas, and reducing nesting opportunities to significantly reduce the likelihood of future infestations.

Domestic & Commercial Mouse Control

Mice frequently invade residential properties in search of food, warmth, and shelter, particularly during colder months. Our domestic mice control services help homeowners eliminate mouse infestations quickly while minimising disruption to family life. We regularly treat infestations in houses, flats, apartments, garages, outbuildings, gardens, and loft spaces.

For businesses, mice can create serious health, safety, and reputational risks — including food contamination, damaged stock, failed inspections, customer complaints, and operational disruption. We provide commercial mouse control services for restaurants, cafés, hotels, warehouses, factories, retail premises, schools, healthcare facilities, offices, and property management companies.
