5. Plant Peppermint:
Grow peppermint plants around your home as a natural deterrent.
6. Cat Litter:
Place used cat litter near potential nesting sites outside. The scent of cat urine acts as a natural predator deterrent.
7. Seal Entry Points:
Fill any holes or entry points with materials like plaster of Paris, cement, steel wool, or copper mesh.
8. Ground Clove Repellent:
Use ground cloves near entry points, refreshing them every couple of days to maintain their effectiveness.
9. Dryer Sheets:
Place dryer sheets in areas where rodents congregate. Their strong scent repels mice and rats.
10. Feline Assistance:
Consider adopting a cat. Cats are natural hunters and their presence can deter rodents.
11. Handling Dead Rodents:
When dealing with a deceased rodent, always wear gloves. Dispose of the body in double-sealed bags and place it in an outdoor trash bin.
12. Consistent Application:
Remember, consistent and varied approaches are key to effective rodent control.
Implementing these methods can significantly reduce the presence of rodents in your home, ensuring a safer and healthier living environment.
