Does it repell mice? How long does it take?

I haven't seen any in the house since we installed them, at lease four months

For me, I felt it doesn't repel anything. I still get spiders and flies in the house. Mice, I don't know since they are nocturnal. They have never been in the house, only outdoors.

No it doesn't, I put it on during late July and I traveled the next day for 3 weeks. I came back and didn't see any mouse for two days then one night I heard some noise in the kitchen and was worried and the next morning I saw two running in the bathroom. I live in a small studio and I have installed 3 of those repellents betweeb the kitchen and living room then one in the bathroom. It is not worth it. Try peppermint oil. it works

I'm not sure how effective it really is but when my daughter used it in her dorm room at college and in her first apartment in the city of Philly, she never saw any bugs, cockroaches or mice! It doesn't cost that much so worth it to me!

I got it to repel insects and it does not seem to work well for that. Not sure about mice, tho.

Don't know about mice because I have a cat, but it certainly repels bugs. Get a sweet cat and your mice problems are over.

I can't say yes or no. I was having a rabbit and ground hog problem, and for those animals it did work. Unfortunately, I soon ran into a problem with a "herd" or field mice that decided to ravage my garden. I can't say one or or another if the product attracted the mice, but who knows for sure.

If you want it to get rid of mice, it doesn't work, I used two bottles on cotton wool, I also emptied electric air fresheners and filled them with the peppermint oil. I also used an electronic high pitched noise that is supposed to get rid of mice. It didn't work. Don't waste your money. Ring your local council, their services are free

I simply pour this onto a cotton ball or cotton facial pad and place in key areas to control mice (in an outside building). I would not delute this product because I don't think you would get the desired results. It does work! I place my cotton balls under the kitchen sink, behind cabinets, even under the front porch.

aloha dean, unsure how long it would last. we sprinkled this product in all the spaces between the rock walls and buildings at our inn, and so far, no more mice. we've been testing it for two weeks now.

to be honest I have no idea. Not sure if it even works on Mice. I installed 3 or 4 in my house and if we are gone for a few weeks in the spring or fall, the still invade the kitchen cubbords

I have found the batteries to last about 6 -8 weeks with cheap batteries. It also depends on how many mice you kill at a time. I caught 20-30 mice I'm that first set of batteries. My second set has been in more than 2 months but less mice now. Maybe 5-10 mice this time. As far as cold weather I don't know yet. It hasn't gotten cold yet. Also the mice do stink if left in the tray for very long. Especially if it's warm weather. But in child weather I would think the opposite. I am very very happy with my trap. I am sure with high quality batteries You could get 5-6 months.

Especially good for ur garbage. I would spray in and around it. If u spray around the parameter then rodents won't come near it. Spray last up to 30 days. I use every 25 and still haven't had an issue.

I noticed mice in my home so I bought this. It is loud, so I turned it on during the day before I left for work then turned it off at night when I got home. I ran it for about 4 days and never noticed another critter! It is awesome and really worked for me. I don't even use it anymore, and think it was so annoying to the pests that they just moved on and out of my home.

It is a little electrical appliance with no replaceable parts. So I would expect it to last for a number of years.It may not work for mice, as other people have said, but it sure seems to be working to deter roaches in my house.

Used it to deter mice in the attic...both chipmunks and mice are rodents...could work. May have to reapply it fairly often if used outside...q 2-3 days, maybe. Not harmful just a deterrent..I like that aspect.

This trap works very well if you are up against just one mouse at a time. A nest of them in the house will result in the trap door being reopened giving the earlier captures a chance (but not always) to escape. Just be patient, they eventually slip up or set two traps at a time. It is worth it to see the look on their faces when you do catch them and they can see the look on yours through the clear door !!

It says to put them around woodpiles and hiding areas where mice might go. I put them around my foundation and under my deck stairs. You can tell if you have a good spot if the cotton inside the tubes are scattered around the tube. That means the mice have found it and more than likely took some cotton from the tick tube. If you don't see some of the cotton outside the tick tube then I would move it to a different location in about a week. Their website is also a good source for information

Unfortunately we had a female field mouse that had pups in our house. I'd guess the pups are about 2-3 weeks old and are very small. You'll have no problems catching them with this trap! None have escaped mine yet. :)

The scent is strong for only a couple hours at the most. A faint scent remains but whether on not it's enough to keep the mice away I wouldn't know. I buy them because I think they are a good buy as they are strong and reasonably priced.

I haven't had much luck with this product. I have one down stairs and one on the main floor. I finally had enough of the mice and just bought Decon and got rid of them that way.

The unit's instruction sheet said that it won't repell every single pest and that traps must be set to get the last of them. I found it to be true. I had to purchase and set traps to get them all.
