Mice are pests that can cause a lot of damage if they get into your house. Fortunately, there are preventive measures you can take to keep them away from your home. In this article, we will tell you how to keep mice out of your home
1. Hot pepper flakes
Spread them throughout the house or apartment and you can also mix them with tiny cheese pieces, which mouse like to eat. The mice will eat the hot peppers and will never come back.
2. Hot sauce
Similarly to the previous method, this one is also based on the mice’s inability to stand spicy foods. Therefore, apply several drops of hot sauce into different areas of your home to keep them at bay.
3. Mousetraps
Disperse several traps throughout different areas of your home or apartment.
4. Ultrasonic rodent scavengers
Nowadays, these devices have become more and more popular. The ultrasound fills out the whole room and the rodents are unable to stand it and will run off. This sound cannot harm us and we cannot hear it.
5. Special rodent glue
This glue needs to be applied onto a bigger cardboard and the mice will easily glue onto it and it will be prevented from moving. This is the perfect method if you noticed more than one mouse because it enables you to trap all of them at once.
6. Cats
Some cats are lazier than others, so, whether your cat will get the job done or not is questionable. If your cat is unable to ‘help you’, borrow your friend’s or neighbor’s cat and see how it goes.
7. Peppermint oil
Sprinkle it throughout your home, especially in the area where you have noticed the mice. They will get away because they cannot stand the smell of peppermint.
