Is there a way to naturally repel mice from a home besides a cat, lol?

"Mashed potato powder or buds. Place instant mashed potato powder or buds in strategic places with a dish of water close by. After eating the powder or buds mice will need water. This causes fatal bloating."

Peppermint. I plant peppermint around my house and use the leaves to make a spray which I use inside. Rodents do not like it. Haven't had a mouse in years.
You can use glue traps and use mineral oil to remove them safely. I don't know about repelling them.
The only thing that works great is the "things at the store' they give off a sound only unwanted guests hear. Mice will not come around at all. I have used them for years,back when you had to order from factory.
Places where you may not have an outlet (in my garage) I put cinnamon sprinkled around back of cabinets,in front to anywhere they could hide.I make sure no water gets in,mice go for the water to drink.
Good luck! I hate rodents so I always use these measures just in case.
Hi I wanted to come back and tell you that red pepper works also. Any kind of Cajun pepper does the trick I guess mice do not like the smell of it, much less the taste. Once again good luck.
