Environmental science I can understand, but vector control??  I have 
studied advanced mathematics for many years, but have never learned how to 
control a vector.....

I teach environmental science and vector control.  This is no kidding
serious.  When cleaning mouse urine wear a respirator not a dust mask.  one
like you use to paint with.  wear eye protection!! and spray it down I with
20% bleach and wait 15 to 20 min. before cleaning.  If possible do so in a
well ventilated area.  If possible use a wet clean process to prevent dust
particles.
