Whether you have mice or whether you have rats, both are issues that you want to get resolved as soon as possible.

Mice are very curious rodents and will investigate anything new.

Mice prefer to eat cereal, grains, nuts, and berries. They will look for materials such as shredded paper or cardboard around the house to make and build their nest with. This is a clear sign that you are dealing with mice. Rats on the other hand are more aggressive and usually like to stay in secluded areas. The rat is also bigger than compared to the normal house mouse and is more likely to attack. When you see a rat make sure to stay away from it.
Mice are usually nocturnal and mostly active from dusk till dawn they do not like bright lights but will come out during the daytime to look for food.
