Pinesol To Keep Pests Away

Keep a spray bottle of half Pinesol/half water under your sink spray outside garbage cans or anywhere you have a pest problem. Animals like rodents, opossums, raccoons, etc. don't like the smell.

I was just on my way to buy another expensive bottle of Critter Ridder. Thanks for the tip and the savings.

I believe anyone with just a little common sense would keep pine-sol away from pets.

Just reading this...No need to be sarcastic. This is helpful zone and everyone does not think at the same pace or in the same manner.

We discovered a mother racoon and babies in the eaves of our garage. My husband took action as follows:
1) He sprayed lots of cold water into the entry point, soaking the racoons. They hate the hose!

2) He placed rags soaked with 100% pine sol at their 2 entry points. By dusk, the mother racoon returned, dragged each of the 4 babies out of the eaves and off to another location.
All of this took place over the course of 1 day. The following day, he used sheet metal and extra roofing shingles to create a barrier and close off their entry points. The pine sol scent still lingers--we hope that will deter them from returning.

Is it safe to use pine sol on the ground where my fruit trees are? Theres a bunch of ants and tiny fruit flies after the harvest of peach.
