We discovered that we were having an issue with not only mice, but chipmunks as well. I called Critter Control and they came out the next day. From the consultation, to the sealing of two vents, and the implementation of outdoor traps, all three representatives were on time, friendly, thorough, and helpful. I would highly recommend them!
