The good news is that finding evidence of one mouse does not necessarily mean you have an actual infestation on your hands. With rats, you’ll know you have them as they tend to be aggressive and have little fear of humans, but when it comes to mice, these timid little potential carriers of HPS, Leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis, plague, and typhus can be shy and retiring, so you may not even know you have mice until you find droppings or chewed packaging and food.

While any infestation in general is deeply unpleasant, a rodent infestation is among the worst kind to find yourself lumbered with.
