Why is it significant to monitor for minor mouse infestations?

Monitoring for minor mouse infestations is significant because such infestations can lead to a rapid increase in fecal matter, which poses substantial health risks. Mice are known to reproduce quickly, and even a small number of mice can lead to a population explosion if not addressed promptly. As the mouse population grows, so does the amount of droppings they produce. Mouse feces can carry diseases and contribute to various health hazards for humans, including respiratory issues and food contamination. Therefore, early detection and monitoring of even minor infestations are crucial to prevent these potential health threats from escalating. Addressing minor infestations can help maintain a safe and healthy environment and reduce the risk of more serious problems associated with larger infestations.
