Grandpa Gus's Extra-Strength Mouse Repellent Pouches vs Grandpa Gus's Mouse Repellent Pouches with Peppermint and Cinnamon Oil, 12 Pouches

Buy the 12-pouch pack if you have more than one room, vehicle or storage area to cover. At the listed prices the larger pack costs less per pouch, and both use the same peppermint and cinnamon oil formula with 50 sq ft coverage per pouch. The 3-pack makes sense only for a single small space like a car or closet.

    Choose the 12-pouch pack if you're covering a garage, attic, RV and multiple rooms, since the per-pouch cost is lower and you get a resealable bag to store the extras.

    • Lower cost per pouch
    • Resealable bag keeps unused pouches fresh
    • Burlap pouches can hang or be dropped in place

    • Pleasant mint-cinnamon smell
    • No mess or dead rodents to handle
    • Easy to place and forget

    • Pleasant peppermint-cinnamon scent
    • Easy to place and no mess
    Cons

    Questions and answers

    Which pack is better for a two-car garage?
    The 12-pouch pack. A garage that size needs several pouches at 50 sq ft each, and the larger pack gives you enough without reordering.
    Do both use the same repellent?
    Yes. Both are Grandpa Gus's pouches with peppermint oil and cinnamon oil, rated for 50 sq ft per pouch and 1 to 3 months of use.
    Is the 12-pack worth the extra money?
    If you have more than one space to treat, yes. The per-pouch price is lower and you get a resealable bag, so extras stay fresh.
    How long does one pouch last?
    Grandpa Gus's rates each pouch at 1 to 3 months. Replace it when the mint scent fades, since the scent is what does the work.
    Are these safe around pets?
    Both are listed as pet-safe and use essential oils rather than poison. Keep pouches out of reach so dogs and cats don't chew them.
    Will these get rid of an existing mouse problem?
    They deter mice from entering a space; they don't trap or kill. For an active infestation, pair them with traps and seal entry points.
