Great Pest Control April 12, 2006

This is the greatest product to control mice. Just a dab on a cotton ball, pitch it in the back of your cabinets and under the sink. Replace with new balls about once a month. I don't know where they go, but they are not messing with my house anymore.

I too have used this product for deter mice from coming into my home. It is much better than nasty traps, and you don't have to worry about using around your pets because one it won't hurt them, and two dogs stay away from it anyway because they don't like the smell either. And it makes your house smell great. I'm ordering some different oils to try to get rid of spiders. one drop of each in 1 quart of water citronella oil, lavender oil, cinnamon oil, peppermint oil, citrus oil, and tea tree oil. I have a very bad problem with spiders.

This winter the mice decided to live with us. I read in the paper that peppermint oil will get rid of them so I ordered some. I sprayed it all over the house (1 cup water to 2 tsp. oil) and I have not heard or seen a mouse since I sprayed the oil under the sink, along the garage wall entering the house, along the baseboards, etc. House smells great and no mice, the oil really works. I highly recommend it if you have mice in your house.
Now Foods Pure Peppermint Oil May 16, 2009

I am using this product for pest (mice) control as our building is under construction and this has recently become an issue.
NOTE: It must be 100% pure Peppermint Oil - which Now Foods Peppermint oil is.
The peppermint oil works really, really well for me on the cotton balls but here is what I suggest:
Be careful how much you use on the cotton ball because it is very, very, very strong. Test your tolerance for it by using a tip of the bottle on the cotton ball at first and increasing it if you can tolerate it because remember you are using it in many places throughout the house. Make sure you refresh the cotton balls often as needed. I put it in every closet, behind the stove - in the bathroom on the far corner of the tub and I even put it on my countertops in the beginning.
I have read you can also make a spray from it but I have not done this as I live in an apartment. DO NOT SPRAY IN THE HOME!! because there is no way to remove it once you spray - but with cotton balls you can just pick them up to remove them if they are too strong and even then the smell can linger. As I said be careful with the cotton balls as well. You can make the Peppermint Oil spray starting with 2 teaspoons (or 2 tablespoons - sorry I'm not sure which - try 2 teaspoons first) to one cup water in a spray gun. re-spray areas every 6 months. Apparently mice are allergic to peppermint.
Peppermint Oil is pet friendly and what I like about it is that it is a DETERRENT - not a trap. My neighbor uses traps but I firmly believe this can attract and re-attract the mice because of the food you put in them and I believe that even if you catch them the food scent lingers. I think this attracts them as well where Peppermint Oil absolutely repels them.
I am so relieved that I found this solution and that is has been working so well. Eventually when the construction stops maybe I will not have a problem but as long as I have the peppermint oil - I am very happy with the results - NO MICE!

This Peppermint Oil is fabulous. It has a great strong smell, perfect for mixing with a carrier oil. I am currently using it full strength as a mouse detterent after being sick and tired of chemical methods. It works great!! My cupboards have been free of little beasties since I started using it. Great value and always a handy Oil to have around the house!
