Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- Pepperment oil
-
Step 1
First thing needed is some peppermint oil. The reason why is because mice cannot stad the scent of pepperment, it is a kind of repulsive smell to them.
-
Step 2
Go around your home along the walls to notice and open spaces or holes and make a note to yourself that the mouse or mice may come in and exit out of there.
-
Step 3
Dab some of the peppermint oil near the holes and open spaces so it will repel the mice from comming in. Also dab some of the oil along some parts of the wall, and in areas where you don't want mice to enter.

on 7/8/2009 Riddex does not work. I have one plugged into an outlet in the kitchen & the mice run right by it, no effect what so ever. I'm going to try the peppermint oil. Hope it works.
