£240 house, £190 flat, proofing £180. And a distinction that matters here: not every mouse in a Stanmore house is a house mouse.
£240 for a house and £190 for a flat, covering the full treatment programme including follow-up visits.
Proofing is £180 and matters more for mice than almost any other pest. A mouse gets through a gap the width of a pencil, and on a property backing onto open ground there is seasonal pressure from outside every autumn.

Worth knowing in Stanmore, because on a property backing onto woodland or parkland you may well have the second one — and it behaves differently.
| House mouse | Wood mouse (field mouse) | |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Grey-brown, small eyes and ears | Sandy-brown above, white below, large eyes and ears |
| Tail | About body length, thin, scaly | About body length, distinctly furred |
| Where it lives | Indoors, year-round | Outdoors — comes in seasonally |
| When it comes in | Any time | Autumn and winter |
| Typical location | Kitchen, under-unit voids | Loft, garage, outbuildings |
| Hoarding | Little | Caches food — nuts, seed, pet food |
| Smell | Distinctly musky | Much less so |
A cache of seeds or nuts in a loft, a boot or a drawer is the giveaway. House mice do not do that; wood mice do. So is a mouse with obviously large eyes and ears.
If you back onto Stanmore Common and find a neat pile of hoarded seed in the loft in November, you are looking at a wood mouse rather than an infestation of the house.

View Mouse Control Stanmore →A mouse passes through a gap of roughly 6mm — about the width of a pencil. A larger, older property has a great many such gaps.
A house mouse seen usually means several present. A single wood mouse in a loft in autumn may genuinely be one — though it rarely stays one for long.
A cat may catch some. It will not clear a population in a loft or inside kitchen units.
Droppings settle it — mouse droppings are 3–6mm, about a grain of rice. Rat droppings are 12–18mm and tapered.
Wasp nests turn up in the same lofts and outbuildings — £90 fixed cost in Stanmore, guaranteed for 30 days.
£240 for a house and £190 for a flat, including follow-up visits. Proofing is £180.
A wood mouse is sandy-brown with a white belly and distinctly large eyes and ears, lives outdoors and comes in seasonally, favours lofts and outbuildings, and caches food.
A hoard of seeds or nuts in a loft, boot or drawer is the giveaway — house mice do not cache food. So are noticeably large eyes and ears.
The treatment and price are the same, but the entry points differ and are often at roof or eaves level, which makes proofing more important.
About 6mm — roughly the width of a pencil.
On a property backing onto open ground, wood mice move in as the weather turns. Proofing is what changes that.
No. They are part of the programme at the same price.
No. A cat may catch some but will not clear a population in a loft or inside kitchen units.
Published prices. Look for a hoard of seed in the loft — it tells us which mouse we are dealing with.
