We found mice droppings in one of the kicthen cupboards, pest control has came out and have gone through the house and put traps and poison down.

I didn't know you shouldnt hoover mice poo up and I got rid of it from the hoover and there was dust everywhere.
I'm now panicking we are all going to get Hantaviruses or something else.

Please be kind, my dad has just passed away and my mental health is very low.

Sorry for your loss Flowers

I've hoovered a lot of mouse poo in my time and have never had any problem with doing that. Your best bet, once it's been caught in the trap (that's a much better option than poison) would be finding out where the little darling is getting in and blocking the hole with wire wool or a brillo pad.

I got myself in a right state, even got a new hoover as well.
Since my dad I feel like I'm on high alert for everything and panicking over everything.

Please return the vacuum! It's unnecessary to replace your other. Nothing bad will happen

Now my cooker has broken (not even that old) and I'm inclined to think it's these mice as it was noise inside of there that made us look for any other evidence of them.
And it keeps tripping the electrics.
I'm so pissed of, my house is clean and my garden is well keept but unfortunately my neighbours isn't.
His garden is like a jungle! I just want to fuck of from here it's really effecting my mental health and I feel dirty.
