Hi,

My tenants have recently emailed me about mice. How much of this is my problem. I have rented before and when we had mice, we put out sticky traps. The property is in Chicago and mice come in door in all properties EVERY fall. What is fair to expect from their demands? I'm happy to bring over sticky traps and try to plug holes with steel wool...but I'm not going by everyday to pick up a dead mouse or two.

@Meghan McCallum It is best to address in the lease early to avoid the grey areas you experience now because you are forced to side on the front of customer service at this point.
