We offer quite affordable materials that will help get rid of mice in the house and at the same time create a fragrant aura in it.
A fun way to get rid of mice in your home
These products are especially convenient and effective to use in the fight against mice if the walls are lined with clapboard, between the slats of which there are small gaps. We will use an alcohol-based peppermint tincture and essential oil also from mint. As a tool, we use a 20 cc medical syringe and a needle for an accurate and economical dosage of the aromatic liquid.
The combined use of these two drugs in the form of a mixture creates a more intense aroma that mice cannot tolerate, but is very pleasant to people, and this also significantly increases the duration of action of the binary mixture to repel mice.
We uncork the bottles and pour the essential oil from mint into the alcohol tincture of peppermint through a dropper. Then close the bottle with the mixture and shake vigorously for several minutes.In this case, the components are mixed without their chemical interaction.
We put a needle on the syringe and suck in a certain amount of the aromatic greenish mixture. Now, through the cracks between the planks of the lining, the places of fallen knots, cracks as a result of drying out of the wood, we make small injections of the resulting aromatic liquid, which mice cannot tolerate. At the same time, we try to treat as large an area as possible and minimize the amount of solution wasted.
In addition to the cracks in the lining, it is necessary to inject the main routes of movement of mice. Typically these are spaces along electrical wires, cables, hot water and heating pipes, as well as places where they pass through walls and partitions. We especially carefully treat areas where mice have gnawed holes in wall materials, etc.
For periodic treatment, depending on the area of the apartment, you will need 3-5 bottles of alcohol tincture and essential oil. The smell of mint lasts for about 4 days and during this period all signs of the presence of mice disappear. Then the aroma begins to slowly disappear over 10-11 days. Therefore, to consolidate the success of defeating mice, it is necessary to repeat the procedure in the same order after the specified time.
