Get an inside cat. We have not had mice in years.
I use dryer sheets in every drawer and closet in our travel trailer, no mice.
IN our hold home in he quasi-country, I had a terrible problem with nice especially in my kitchen. I saturated cotton balls with the oil when i noticed droppings in the drawers. I changed the balls or resaturated them once the minty order was gone. I don't have a scientific reasons but it works and after a few months you can stop altogether.l Somehow, the mouse telegraph tells them not to visit.
The downside of this is that I lost my 4 star rating as an ultra friendly B&B for mice. Fomice withdrew its endorsement and even advised that mice stay away.
Once again the internet ate my post. I can't tell you the how or why this approach works but my experience was really positive. I saturated cotton balls with peppermint oil and put them where ever I saw droppings. To my absolute delight the droppings vanished and I never saw another dropping before we moved. The mouse telegraph must have given us a very bad recommendation.
In addition, I was notified that Fomice ( Fodors for rodents) withdrew my two star rating recommending that we be delisted as a destination location. I was devastated and wondered what kind of world this is when I only got one review on something totally unrelated.
