Get an inside cat. We have not had mice in years.

I use dryer sheets in every drawer and closet in our travel trailer, no mice.

IN our hold home in he quasi-country, I had a terrible problem with nice especially in my kitchen. I saturated cotton balls with the oil when i noticed droppings in the drawers. I changed the balls or resaturated them once the minty order was gone. I don't have a scientific reasons but it works and after a few months you can stop altogether.l Somehow, the mouse telegraph tells them not to visit.

The downside of this is that I lost my 4 star rating as an ultra friendly B&B for mice. Fomice withdrew its endorsement and even advised that mice stay away.

Once again the internet ate my post. I can't tell you the how or why this approach works but my experience was really positive. I saturated cotton balls with peppermint oil and put them where ever I saw droppings. To my absolute delight the droppings vanished and I never saw another dropping before we moved. The mouse telegraph must have given us a very bad recommendation.

In addition, I was notified that Fomice ( Fodors for rodents) withdrew my two star rating recommending that we be delisted as a destination location. I was devastated and wondered what kind of world this is when I only got one review on something totally unrelated.

On the positive side, my new house ( invisible so far except for the tell all mouse protection movement) mouse has apparently concluded that even though this place is in a nice central location it isn't worth the drama. Those other mice who can't read and but had the invitation read to them and are beginning to make reservations, the mice will be when very unhappy when they realize that it is so not worth all the trauma that awaits them if they cross the threshold. I feel like Norman Gates in Psycho.
