Once in the home, the mother mouse will immediately begin making her nest. She will spend her entire day chewing on things in order to free a piece of material that she can take back to the nest and add to whatever is there. She will consistently work on this for days in order to create the perfect home for her babies. Once the babies are born, she will travel back and forth during the day to feed herself and her babies. The babies will be safe in the nest when she is away from them until she can come back and be with them to feed them.

If a mouse gets into your attic, you can bet she is going to build a nest and have babies. That’s what they do, that is their nature, and they will not go against it. Once you hear a mouse in your home or see signs of a mouse in your home, you will want to work on a solution immediately in order to get rid of them. The longer you take to get rid of them, the more likely they will have a nest full of babies soon and start scavenging for food in your kitchen.
