Do rodent repellent sprays work?

The short answer

They can help keep rodents away from a particular spot. Health Canada says repellents can deter rodents from chewing on things like young trees, structures and garbage bags. Tomcat Rodent Repellent Spray is for outdoor use only, so if you already have mice inside, use traps. Pipestone Farm Supply carries both.

We keep this on hand, so it's ready to go. In-stock orders can ship as soon as the same day, and depending on where you are, your parcel can arrive in as little as 1 to 2 business days once it's on the road. Pickup in Millet, Alberta is free, and shipping is free on orders over $199.99 to most addresses.

Do peppermint oil or dryer sheets keep mice out?

Not reliably. Pest control companies describe peppermint as a short-term deterrent at best, and the scent of dryer sheets fades in a short time. What does keep mice out is sealing gaps, because Health Canada says a mouse can get through a dime-sized crack. For mice already inside, Pipestone Farm Supply carries traps that remove them.
