Pest control service for mice infestation
Hi there! We had a different kind of surprise for Easter. When we reached out in the pantry to surprise our toddle with a chocolate bunny, we discovered it with tiny teeth marks and it’s head gnawed. Definitely a mouse!
This is the first time we noticed something like this. Luckily our 4yo didn’t mind the mouse getting the treat but we’re obviously not to keen on the company. Think they might be nesting in the garage (it’s an old rental so not the most sealed basement and garage) and we think we see some droppings there 👀
Any ideas on what we can do? And leads on pest control options in this lockdown? Should the landlord be looking into this as well?
Thank you and happy Easter!

What workplace change would you like to see most?
This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
