Rats and mice are frequent “guests” in private homes. Of course, no one is happy about rodents, because they do a lot of harm. It also happens that mice appear even in apartments. And if you are tired of setting traps, and the poison no longer works, three simple and effective life hacks will help you.

How to get rid of mice and rats forever, says the Daily Express.

Mothballs

Experts say you can forget about mice and rats if you leave “surprises” for them in the form of mothballs. This life hack should be used carefully. Do not forget that mothballs are unsafe for animals and people.

“Mothballs should only be used in well-ventilated areas and should be used to control mice and rats by placing them directly in problem areas,” the experts explained.

Peppermint oil

This oil is sold in pharmacies. Dampen cotton pads with it and place them where you saw rodents. You can also set traps. Place oil-soaked discs where mice and rats can enter your home.

“If you know they’re just trying to get into your garage, laundry room, or specific area, you can use peppermint oil to repel them. This method works both outdoors and indoors,” the experts noted.

Add foam

If you know exactly where the mice are getting into the house, prepare a “surprise” for them. Fill holes and cracks with foam or other special product. This will block the rodents’ path.

Rodents can enter the home through small openings in the walls and floors, but these areas can be “protected.” Remember that the foam must be allowed to harden before it can be sanded.
