Mentha x piperita

In other Mouse Repellent News, I have recently discovered that mice hate mint. Simply use Peppermint Essential Oilto repel them. In places Mouse Radio cannot reach -- such as the drawer under my stove in which I keep my muffin pans -- I am placing cotton balls scented with peppermint.

A note: I looked this up online before posting the suggestion and reviews are mixed on whether Peppermint essential oil is safe for use in the first few months of pregnancy. If you are pregnant, please do your own research on this and make your own determination before you try it as a mouse repellent!
