What do Mice look like?

Mice are small rodents known for their pointed snouts, small rounded ears, and long, often hairless tails. They are highly adaptable creatures that can find their way into homes seeking food and shelter. Mice are prolific breeders, capable of producing numerous offspring in a short amount of time, which makes controlling and managing their populations paramount.
