Did You Know that There’s a Humane Way to Deter Mice?

Mice problems can get pretty nasty especially during fall. This is why many experts recommend scheduling a mouse proofing procedure for your house towards the end of summer. Mice naturally seek warm, protected shelters for themselves and their young during fall and winter, and unfortunately, your home provides them both in addition to food.

The issue with poison traps–although they do a good job at eliminating infestation–is they pose serious danger to your pets. When placed outdoors, they can also kill wildlife who may wander into your property in search of food.

Fortunately, leading natural bug and insect repellent brand, Bug Soother, has a great product that homeowners swear can deter mice effectively. Bug Soother is owned by Certified B Corporation, Eco Lips, an  Iowa-based company. And their Mice Be Gone Mice Repellant is arguably the best all-natural deterrent in the market today. 

This natural, plant-based mice deterrent features strong-smelling peppermint essential oil, which irritates mice’s nasal cavities and deter them from entering your home. The great thing about peppermint is that humans love it, so you get to enjoy a nice-smelling home while keeping rodents out.

Inside each muslin pouch are crushed corn cobs (which helps soak in the peppermint oil for long-lasting protection), making this a natural and effective product for many areas in or around your home. It’s safe for pets too!

Each Mice Be Gone pouch lasts for two to three months and works best in smaller areas. That said, it may require more than one pouch to effectively keep mice out. Experts recommend finding key areas that mice can use as entry to your home and placing a pouch there. You can also put one inside places where mice would regularly build their nest, including your car, camper, garage, attic, pantry, and shed and barn. Basement and crawl spaces will also especially benefit from the product.

Mice Be Gone sells for $3.99 per pack and is available on www.bugsoother.net.
