Mice are sensitive to smells, and there are several scents that they dislike and can be used to keep them away. Here are some of the smells that mice hate:
- Peppermint oil
- Cinnamon
- Vinegar
- Citronella
- Ammonia
- Bleach
- Mothballs
- Chili oil or powder
- Eucalyptus
These smells can be used in various ways, such as sprinkling cinnamon around the home, using peppermint oil to create a spray, or planting citronella plants around the outdoor space. However, it is important to note that while these smells may help deter mice, they are not foolproof solutions. It is also essential to keep the home clean and free of attractants, such as food left on the counter, and to seal off any possible entry points for mice.
