To naturally repel rats and mice, you can use Vicks VapoRub combined with sugary cookies and baking soda. Here’s how:
- Ingredients: Crush three sugary cookies into a fine powder, mix with one tablespoon of baking soda, and add one teaspoon of Vicks VapoRub.
- Preparation: Knead the mixture into dough and divide it into two small balls.
- Placement: Place the balls in areas where you suspect rats are present. The cookies attract the rats, but the baking soda and Vicks VapoRub will drive them away.
This method is non-toxic and helps prevent diseases like leptospirosis and hantavirus that rats may carry. It’s a simple and natural way to keep your home rat-free.
