Soaking cotton balls in peppermint oil and placing them strategically in corners, basements, and garages will scare away rodents. This scent is so irritating to them that they avoid those areas altogether.

5. Baking soda:
Sprinkling baking soda in places where mouse droppings have been detected can be effective, as its intake alters their digestive system. It’s a simple and affordable option.

6. Ultrasonic repellents:
These devices emit frequencies that cannot be heard by humans or pets, but are very uncomfortable for rodents. Placed in strategic areas, they prevent them from being established.

7. Garlic water:
A mixture of water with crushed garlic can be sprinkled on places where mice usually appear. Its strong smell acts as an effective natural deterrent.

8. Mixture of flour, yeast and grated cheese:
This lure, very attractive to rodents, can be fatal as it is indigestible. Although caution is advised with this method, it is useful for controlling more severe infestations.

9. Toothpaste and laundry detergent:
Mixed and formed into small balls, these products can be placed where mice have been seen. The strong smell and toxicity to them make it an effective method.

10. Plastic bottle with oil:
An ingenious trick: a plastic bottle with oil is placed as a trap. The mice enter attracted by the smell, but they will slip and will not be able to get out.

11. Have a cat at home:
Even if you are not a great hunter, the mere presence of a cat can keep rodents away. Their smell and constant activity is enough to make them look for another shelter.

Rodents not only cause property damage, but they can also transmit diseases. Implementing these natural methods is not only effective, but also more environmentally friendly and safe for your family.

Remember to keep your home clean, avoid leaving food exposed and reinforce vulnerable entrances. With these simple yet powerful tricks, you can say goodbye to rats and mice forever!
