Trying to get rid of mice without a full understanding of the circumstances of your infestation is very difficult. Depending on how they’re getting into your home and where they are nesting, some measures will be more successful than others. If they’re starting in your kitchen, diluted essential oil sprays or hot pepper solutions can work to keep them out of hotspots. Look for their access point and spray there, as well as covering any openings with steel wool or duct tape. If these don’t work, a cat might be able to help you pinpoint them!
