Maybe give some free advice about: Cleaning?
try vaccuuming your house to get the crumbs up. thats what ants are attracted to. and if the mice dont go along w/ the ants, you'll probably have to have an exterminator come for each of them. you might need one exterminator for the rodents and another for the ants, but it'll most likely get rid of them. hope i helped!

Try different animal controling and stuff, once we had a bees nest in our attic they got rid of it for us. hope i helped.

Call the animal control. Look in your phone book for a place near your house that can come as soon as possible. Mouse traps-- ick! Just get it done by calling the animal control and you won't have to deal with mouse traps and stuff.

For the ants, give the area a good thorough cleaning with bleach. When I moved into my new place, it had ants all over the kitchen counter. After trying several sprays, I finally took a bottle of bleach and scrubbed the counter with it several times. I haven't saw an ant since.
For the mice, try to figure out how they're getting into the house. Your dryer vent is a common culprit. Close up any holes that you can to prevent them from getting inside.

First of all, you should call the exterminator/pest control as in they kill the rats and mice so they wont be here. They might also put little blocks in your house to prevent them from coming.
As for the ants, they like food and sweet drinks.

You need to contact a pest control agency and see what they can do to purge the house of the mice and ants.
Both ants and mice are attracted to bits of food left on the ground for extended periods of time. You might see if there is any food left scattered around the house.
But your absolute best bet is to call some kind of exterminator. It isn't at all that expensive and it doesn't take much time at all. That would be your best bet.
I hope this helps and you get that pest problem under control!

Well, they are all mainly attracted to food (all are actually). If it has rained a lot where you live the past few days ants come up and look for a dry home.
Try calling up an exterminator from the yellow pages. I dont know about mice you could look up something called Rat and Mice control in the pages also.
Good Luck!

Make sure not to keep food around and in your rooms, just keep it in the kitchen. Also, damp things I know attract bugs so never keep a wet towel in your bedroom either.
With your case, it really sounds like you need to call in an exterminator, though since you can't get rid of them on your own.
good luck- :)
