Will this keep out mice?

I don't have mice, so I can't say. The mouse would have to be able to push open the lid. I have heard a mouse can get through a hole the size of a dime. So if the lid cannot be pushed up, I imagine a mouse could not get in. There are no air holes in the bread box. Hope this helps.

It should. I don't have mice so I don't know first hand, but I can't imagine how they would get in.

Maybe it closes pretty tight it is made of metal but lid can be flipped open so it depends how large and smart the mice are

In my experience, mice can get into anything. If you have/are afraid you may have mice, you should get one of those gizmos that plugs into an electric outlet and emits ultrasonic rays. The mice don't like the sound. They same to work in our camp in Maine, but, again, I don't think anything is foolproof when it comes to rodents. Sorry.

Mine sleep locked inside at night. If you have a rodent problem you would probably need to install some hardware cloth over the 4 drain holes at the corners of the floor. They are large enough for a mouse to get into.

Does it work. Well I put it in my basement and after a few weeks I was working down there only to see a mouse running around. So I would say it might deter some but not all

I would imagine so. It seems small but I had 5 mice caught in it one time and let them go in a nearby (not too nearby!) park. The only problem I had was getting them to come out! I used dog food in mine because I realized that I had mice when I found the bottom drawer of a kitchen junk drawer filled with dog food pellets.

I think you could safely use it for that. No openings for mice to get in. I've had mine on an exposed deck all winter (near Buffalo NY). Not even a drop of water inside.

I believe that this container, if used in conjunction with its companion lid, would most likely do the trick of keeping out any pests. The lid seals pretty tightly to the container. To be totally forthcoming, though, I have not had any experience with keeping out critters, so I can't attest completely to the air tightness of the container in this specific situation.

As far as I can tell, it repels nothing. I bought two. One I mounted under the hood. After two weeks they (mice) built a nest on top of it. They other I put in the cab. Rodent droppings persist. SAVE your money

It is supposed to, but I put them in in the fall to repel mice. It is still cold where I live so I can't answer your question.

Sorry, I have never had mice to deal with. I know this system keeps roaches away, if you have your home exterminated well first. Then install the Pest Offense, this method works for roaches.

We had a large hole in our wall behind a cabinet that rats were getting in through. We covered the hole with this and haven't seen one since. I'm thinking it would work for insulation too as long as the mouse/rat you are dealing with won't fit though the 1/2 inch holes.

Yes. I used it to stuff in around wires in conduit to keep mice from getting into the junction box. I had used steel wool but the damp area caused it to rust out. The copper will solve this problem and you should work for you too.

I would think if it keeps cats away, (very well I might add), it would keep rabbits away. Not Positive but it is logical.You may have to turn up to max output which is a lot because my neighbors complained it woke them up, so I turned it down a bit.

doubtful - seemed to have no effect on mice in our garage whatsoever... I hear bounce dryer sheets repel them, you might tucking them around...

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 would think it would not attract rodents, even though mice can get thru the smallest of holes (which go right down to the bottom of the unit). When I put food scraps into the bin, I put it at least 6 inches away from the edge, covering it well with leaves/brown material. If you are still worried, I suggest a screen around the lower half of the bin. That would keep the air flowing, but not sure the mice would get under the screen anyway. I tried a tarp (not for mice), but it got too dry. Looks like no one else is having mouse issues either. Good Luck.

will probably keep out rodents but not something as small as a spider or bug

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.
