What do mouse droppings look like?


Question:I came home to see some black dots on my floor in my bathroom and in my sink (small and round like poppy seeds) I have no clue what it is.could it be mouse droppings? Do I have a mouse (aaahhhh!!)?

Answers:
They look like black rice. Be careful when cleaning up as the hunta (probably not spelt correctly) is carried in mice feces and is deadly. Use a damp paper towel to pick up droppings, do not sweep as the virus becomes airborne and you could risk infection. Deer mice carry the virus.


small black rice
Take a sample to your local rodent dropping collection office for a positive identification.
I think they are more like black or brown rice grains. I am not sure what round ones would be from.

We have the plug in electric pest controllers. I got them several years ago out of a clearance bin at Home Depot. It turns out they work great.

We live in Florida where no critters ever die. We have no mice, roaches, ants, spiders or anything.

They send out a vibrating electric charge through the wiring in the walls and keep bugs and rodents out.

They are not cheap but ours are years old and still working, plus no chemicals in our house.
you've got something in there. Is it just the bathroom? Most likely some insects. Clean bathroom thoroughly and wipe baseboards with white vinegar. Do you have a cat- could be flea droppings. or fleas from a mouse or rat- they just don't leave there "rice" around to confuse you.
Round like poppy seeds sounds like cockroaches. Sorry I had to say that.
