- A.
  
  Winter
- B.
  
  Summer
- C.
  
  Spring
- D.
  
  Autumn
Correct Answer
A. Winter

Explanation
Mice mostly migrate into homes during winter because they are seeking shelter and warmth.

Additionally, food sources may become scarce during winter, so mice are more likely to venture indoors in search of sustenance.

- A.
  
  Open walls
- B.
  
  Car trunks
- C.
  
  Clutters
- D.
  
  Car engines
Correct Answer
D. Car engines

Explanation
Mice can be found in open walls, car trunks, and cluttered areas as they provide shelter and food sources. However, car engines are not suitable habitats for mice due to the heat, noise, and lack of food. Additionally, the moving parts and complex structure of car engines make it difficult for mice to access and survive in such environments. Therefore, car engines are the only place where mice cannot be found.

B. Omnivores

Explanation
Mice are considered omnivores because they have a flexible diet that includes both plant matter and small animals. They eat a variety of foods such as grains, seeds, fruits, insects, and even small vertebrates. This adaptability in their diet allows them to survive in various environments and consume whatever food sources are available to them.

Correct Answer
C. Gnaw earthen utensils

Explanation
Mice are known for their ability to cause damage and create a mess in homes. They can chew on electrical wiring, contaminate food, and make the house dirty. However, they do not typically gnaw on earthen utensils. Gnawing on earthen utensils is not a common behavior for mice.

  Blocking all cracks in walls
Correct Answer
B. Filling holes with plastics

Explanation
Filling holes with plastics is not effective in preventing mice invasion because mice can easily chew through plastic. Removing clutters, regular cleaning of the house, and blocking all cracks in walls are effective methods to prevent mice invasion as they eliminate hiding places and entry points for mice.

  Use of water traps
- B.
  
  Use of snap traps
- C.
  
  Use of bait love
- D.
  
  Use of sound repellants
Correct Answer
A. Use of water traps

Explanation
Water traps are not a method of controlling mice. While snap traps, bait love, and sound repellants are commonly used to catch or repel mice, water traps are not typically effective in controlling their population. Mice are not naturally attracted to water traps, and other methods are more commonly used to eliminate or deter mice from infesting an area.

Which of these is not a reliable method of controlling mice in the home?
- A.
  
  Use of glues traps
- B.
  
  Use of snap traps
- C.
  
  Use of bait boxes
- D.
  
  Use of sound repellents
Correct Answer
D. Use of sound repellents

Explanation
Sound repellents are not a reliable method of controlling mice in the home. While they claim to emit high-frequency sounds that are unpleasant to mice, there is limited scientific evidence to support their effectiveness. Mice can quickly adapt to these sounds or simply ignore them, making sound repellents an unreliable option for mouse control.

Mice are associated with which of these diseases?
- A.
  
  Asthma
- B.
  
  Cholera
- C.
  
  Dysentery
- D.
  
  Malaria
Correct Answer
A. Asthma

Explanation
Mice are associated with asthma because they can trigger allergic reactions in individuals who are sensitive to their urine, droppings, or dander. These allergens can be inhaled and cause inflammation in the airways, leading to asthma symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and difficulty breathing. Therefore, mice infestations in homes or buildings can worsen asthma symptoms in affected individuals.

Raising cats to eliminate mice in the home is a.......
- A.
  
  Physical control
- B.
  
  Chemical control
- C.
  
  Physical control
- D.
  
  Biological control
Correct Answer
D. Biological control

Explanation
Raising cats to eliminate mice in the home is considered biological control because it involves using living organisms, in this case, cats, to control the population of another organism, mice. Biological control relies on the natural predation or parasitism of one species on another to reduce pest populations. In this scenario, cats are being used as a natural predator to keep the mouse population in check, making it a form of biological control.
