Does this get rid of mice

You would want to dilute some peppermint essential oil in a spray bottle with water for that.

Actually, this is a really good question. I was told to wash my cabinets with peppermint soap to deter mice. Mice hate mint. That's why you should plant it around the foundation. I'm going to buy some Dr Bronner's Peppermint and try it out. At the very least, it's great soap! I usually buy the almond but I'm going to give the mint a try. Dilute! Dilute!! Okay!!!

Excuse me? Where did you ever get that idea? This is soap! Castile soap! Wash your body, wash your hair, wash your unmentionables! No where in all my years of using this product have I ever heard anyone mention, or even hint at the possiblity of, getting rid of mice! You use traps or poison with mice, not castile soaps!

I buy this stuff to use when I'm wilderness camping because it's all natural and biodegradable. You know, for when you want to bathe in the lake. I suppose you could throw the soap at the mouse and get rid of it that way. So yes.

There is a recipe online that includes Dawn dishwashing liquid, peppermint essential oil, and hot water. Soap serves as a surfactant. I just spent $16 on those ingrediants so I'm thinking a drop or two of Dr Bonners might be a less expensive solution. Especially if you clean your kitchen with it anyway. Good question.

Our animal assistance group used it inside the animal shelter last winter (on the floor, in the corners, but not right in the dog kennels). It's the first year we haven't been completely overcome with mice. We also cut mint from our gardens, dried it, put it in old socks, and scattered them around inside the building.

I dont live in an apartment building. However, I dont believe it makes any difference. The product works by emitting some sort of sound that is not audible to humans. It was very effective in my kitchen, keeping mice away and now, I have them plugged into other rooms where mice were less of a problem. Have not seen any indication of mice there. We unplug it at times when our cat is roaming around. Also, it makes a slight clicking noise. Using it at night has been effective for us.

Don't know. It works great for mice and spiders have decreased. I have three. One in garage, one in the living area and one for three bedrooms and an office. Very very pleased. Our house was mice infested when we moved in a year and a half ago. Haven't seen one since not no droppings. Our house is 2600 sq ft.

Not sure. We live in an old house. I have seen a small mouse slip in and out of the bars. Rats maybe big enough to not do that.

First off you should use a bait station so your pets/children have no direct access to the poison. The other thing to be worried about is your pet catching and eating the mouse before it succumbs to the poison. This can be easier for them to do because the poison has slowed the mouse down. Hope this helps.

I have only killed mice in mine. Rats may be too smart for it, not sure. Only one at a time though - they are too smart to go in it when a dead one is in there.

I don't know. It smells pretty bad, so it might, but I only used it for mice. It did a great job for me on mice, but I was using it inside a garage, rather than outside.

I have a 10x10 shed and have tossed a packet in each corner of the it. It has kept the mice away without having to resort to traps. I do have to replace them every 30 days or so, but it's been worth it.

i dont really think so. it is a very low frequency that runs thru your electrical wiring in your home, garage or barn. we use 2 units in a small barn 22 x 28 and it helps w/ mice somewhat. however this time of year it is most difficult to keep any kind of critters outside. but they do make an "outside" unit for the yards... you may want to try that..... good luck!!!

It works on mice, but not for rats. I think they have one formalated for rats, tho. Look at the website. That's the best I can offer.

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

I bought it to ward off mice, and it definitely works for that. I don't have a problem with fleas, though, so I wouldn't know. Sorry.

it worked for me - w live on 2nd floor in apt building. Device covers up to 5000 sq ft,BUT - it all depends on how severe your issue is. Ours was pretty bad,plus mice were living in almost every apartment in our building,so it was hard to get rid of them....We have 3 devices now,and they helped,no mice in our home anymore.Depending on your square footage,I'd recommend getting at least two devices to be on the safe side.

No. Mice do not care about this stuff. I sprayed continuously for 2 days, but they were still there. Caught 3 mice today using sticky pads.
