Mighty Mint Gallon (128 oz) Rodent Repellent Natural Peppermint Oil Spray

Had cats for over 40 years. When the last one passed on, we were concerned that our house might get mice. No mice to report. Also, spray smells fresh and encouraging. Have been using faithfully every week.

Leí muy buenas críticas, con gusto lo compré, pasó el tiempo, todos los días lo usé, y sólo sirvió para perfumar con olor a menta, pero ningún efecto contra el roedor... Decepción, mucho dinero tirado a la basura.

Sprayed this liberally in and around the car and the mice was less reluctant to be near a friend's car. They were pleased because they had mice chewing up their car cables. They may order this again after using all of this. Candle version of this didn't work for them.

Although the container shows the exact amount of peppermint oil on the front (you have to zoom in) many potential purchasers and people whom have already bought the product have missed this important factor. 4% seems to be the standard amount from what I've observed across the web. The decision to rate this with 3 stars is due to the small amount of peppermint oil and its seemingly ineffectiveness. That percentage is also why the product is so affordable. I researched pure peppermint or 100% peppermint oil and it is extremely expensive in bulk (more than 24 oz) however that is what you truly need if you want to rid your space of rodents. Some good points: The gallon container has a handle as well as a convenient spray nozzle attached to a hose that's about a foot (give or take) long. It makes it very easy to spray hard to reach areas (behind item's that can't easily be moved, underneath immovable or heavy objects, in corners etc). The scent is not as overwhelming as uncut peppermint oil yet some who have purchased this product have found it strong and offensive to the senses. I like the smell of peppermint oil so that didn't bother me. Depending on how much and how often you spray, it WILL linger for days, gradually dissipating. What did bother me is that we didn't have a mouse or rat infestation so to speak, just probably the mom and a kid or two and despite spraying every nook and cranny of our small living space (often multiple times per day) the one or two little bas**rds were still around! I've used pure/uncut essential peppermint oil in the past (soaking cotton balls and stuffing them in corners and wiping the baseboards and areas I've seen them in/on and where I've noticed their droppings) and it absolutely worked. It kept them out for months and for nearly a year we didn't see any sign of them. I emptied this gallon jug in less than a week and the crafty rodents seemed to have found a space to hide where they were not as effected by the overpowering mint because they were still coming out (albeit very cloak & daggerish--lol) looking for food. Eventually (several weeks later and after finding one of their main exit and entry points and soaking it with 100% Peppermint THEN plugging that hole) they or it left. I hesitate to say that this product doesn't work (esp since other reviews say otherwise) but from the product description my expectations were set high. I was looking to see mice packing up like on the cartoons (Lol). I wouldn't completely count MIGHTY MINT out. I would suggest that if you decide to purchase, try adding a few ounces (I used 16 oz) of essential peppermint oil to the mixture to make it more effective and save the handy jug for future use, especially if you need to dilute your pure oil. I hope this helps.

Pleased with purchase. Much better than other options (such as mothballs!). My sister recommended this product to me and I am really satisfied with it. I also like the smell of peppermint, so that is a plus! I used this in my garage around my riding mower which is covered with a heavy mower cover. I have had no problems with mice huddling under the cover or hanging around the mower or any other area in the garage.
