4 – HUNTING MICE AWAY WITH LEMON AND PEPPER

The smell of lemon and pepper scares away mice.

Tip: stick peppercorns in lemon slices then place them in the corners of your rooms.

5 – CLOVES TO GET RID OF MICE

Again, this is a smell that mice hate. Simply place a few cloves in a fabric where your visitors pass, and that’s it.

And for more effectiveness, you can also use a cotton pad soaked in clove essential oil.

6 – MINT ESSENTIAL OIL TO REPELL THEM

No need for chemicals to chase away rodents! In fact, mice don’t really like the smell of mint which even tends to scare them away. The operation works just as well with peppermint as with strong mint. Do not hesitate to invest in essential oils for a very effective effect against pests.

You can pour a few drops on laundry or in places where you suspect them of entering. The mice quickly risk lodging elsewhere. As for their health, there is no need to worry: the smell will repel them, but will not intoxicate them at all.

7 – USE A COLA DRINK

Cola drinks are fatal for rats. Simply place a container filled with this drink within reach of these rodents. They will taste it and die.
