Mice may seem furry and cute to some people, but you really don’t want them in your house. Mice can carry diseases and infect your living space. If you are like me, the thought of killing the mice and having their dead carcasses lying around probably doesn’t sound like a good solution. That is why I was so happy to find this helpful video tutorial by Natural Health Remedies on YouTube, which described seven very efficient natural solutions to taking care of a mice problem by repelling them, not killing them. This video goes through all these ideas using things you probably already have around the house. There are so many ideas here like, sprinkling Tabasco sauce around the baseboards outside, putting peppermint on teabags or cotton balls, filling an old thin sock with cloves, and leaving these sachet packets around your house, or stuffing dryer sheets in places where the mice are likely entering the house.
You may want to try fresh garlic as a mice deterrent. You can just leave garlic cloves strewn about an area where mice are likely to congregate or make a spray out of crushed garlic and soapy water to spray around the perimeter of your house.
You can also wrap some cloves up in a thin sock and the mice will run a mile!
These methods are really awesome and they make me feel safe because they are effective against mice, while being completely non-toxic.
