Mice in a woodsy vacation rental

Lee L.
Posted

I am currently preparing our vacation home in Vermont near Mount Snow to accept vacation rentals. The thing about a house in a heavily wooded area is that there is a never ending stream of mice looking to get in. I know how we handle this issue in our own house, but that requires us to occasionally dispose of a dead mouse, something a vacationer is not going to want to do. 

We don't live close enough to set traps and dispose of mice ourselves, is there some legitimate way to permanently deter mice from entering other than a team of cats?

Only rent to city people who are use to seeing rats .   Mice wont bother them at all .
