I read once from an exterminator to put around boxes of D-con mice poisoning the places where you see the droppings they eat it go away and die a few days later. Where I work there is a catering kitchen on my floor the exterminator came more than once put his stuff around and for months they still kept coming. I put the D-con and after about 2weeks they're gone-but I still keep the boxes around. The same thing was in my house a few years ago. Don't want to take away the business from exterminator but I remember years ago also when I lived in Brooklyn the building was infested and thr exterminator kept coming with no results. They said they'll close up the holes-mice have no bones they fit into the tiniest slits.

The same goes for roaches no need to call an exterminator just buy Boric Acid powder or roach powder works wonders

Mice have bones, but their skeletons are collapsible, allowing them to squeeze into tiny spaces.

Sorry, off topic, but I often see the above assumption.

OP, good luck! Hopefully it's just a temporary issue due to nearby construction or something.

NYC mice are notoriously hard to get rid of. Call Pestco. We tried to deal with a mice infestation ourselves (plastering, sealing, traps, poison, etc). After 6 months, we gave up and called the exterminators. After 2 weeks they were all gone, BH.

I've suffered from that plaque for a while. I tried so many things but nothing worked.
Until I called BUDGET exterminator. He had to come back twice withing the first two months(included in price) haven't seen a bug or mouse for a while now! B"H!!!

If you value your house and your sanity
DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU REALLY REALLY KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.....
