    1. In a blender, put all the ingredients and blend for a few minutes until you get a homogeneous mixture.
    1. We put the mixture in a jar and let it rest covered for 1 day.
    2. After the time has passed, we strain the mixture and put the liquid in a spray bottle.
    3. We spray everywhere in the house, especially in places we know they’ll be around. Be careful with carpets and furniture, as it can stain them.

This way, we get a homemade mouse repellent spray without spending too much!

7. Dryer sheets:

These dryer sheets have a distinctive smell that mice absolutely hate. We simply place these sheets in places where mice can enter. We need to change these sheets once every two weeks.

8. Mothballs:

Another type of odor these rodents can’t stand is the smell given off by mothballs. They’re very effective, but dangerous if you have pets and/or children at home, as they’re toxic if ingested.

9. Adopt or buy a cat:

Cats instinctively hunt any moving animal. When they’re in your home, our pets release scents and fur that mice easily detect and flee as quickly as possible.

In this way, we will effectively scare away these small rodents without harming them.

10. The tomato and spiral method:

To make a repellent to keep away rats and mice, you will need tomato and insecticide spiral.

Start by thinly slicing the tomato. Place the tomato slices in a bowl and rub them with insecticide spirals. Once the tomato slices are evenly coated with insecticide, spread them around areas frequented by rats and mice. The smell of the tomato combined with the insecticide spiral will be unpleasant to rodents, causing them to move away from the area.

To further increase the repellent’s effectiveness, repeat this process every few days, as the scent will eventually fade and rodents may become accustomed to it.
