Mice Control Cranbrook
Oast houses, barns and farm buildings that were never built to be sealed - and stored grain or animal feed that mice will find within a night or two.
Mice Control in Cranbrook
A traditional oast house or a working barn has gaps by design - ventilation, old timber joints, doors that never fitted tightly in the first place. Stored feed, straw and grain give mice exactly what they need to establish fast once they are inside.
This is one of the few settings where full proofing genuinely is not realistic, and we say so rather than promise a seal that a listed or working agricultural building cannot deliver. The honest answer is usually ongoing management alongside whatever proofing the building will actually allow.
Local pattern
A Building That Was Never Meant To Be Sealed
Where full proofing is not possible, the priority shifts to storage discipline - feed and grain in mouse-proof containers, rather than in the bags or bins they arrived in - alongside a monitoring programme that catches numbers building up early.
Listed status on an older farm building often restricts what can be done to the fabric anyway, so we work within what is actually permitted rather than suggesting changes that would not get consent.
For working farms, we can set up a regular visit schedule rather than a one-off treatment, since a building like this is realistically never going to be mouse-free for good - it is a management job, not a single fix.

Can an old oast house or barn actually be sealed against mice?
Rarely completely - we're honest about that and focus on storage discipline and ongoing management instead of promising a full seal.
We store animal feed - does that make it worse?
Significantly, yes. Feed in its original bag or a loose bin is an open invitation; mouse-proof storage containers make the single biggest difference.
How much is mice control in Cranbrook?
From £260 for a one-off visit; a regular management contract for a working farm building is quoted separately.
