What are House Mice?
House mice are small, adaptable rodents known for their grey-brown fur and a keen ability to sneak into homes. They’re typically around 3 to 4 inches in length, not counting their tail. These tiny invaders seek shelter inside Georgia’s residences for food and warmth, especially as temperatures drop. Their small size allows them to squeeze through openings as small as a dime, making even the tiniest cracks an open invitation.
