- Does it kill mice or just repel them?
- It only repels. The peppermint oil scent is meant to drive mice away from treated areas; it does not trap or poison them.
- How often should I reapply it?
- Expect to respray every few days to a week, or once the mint smell fades, especially in areas with airflow or moisture.
- Is it safe around pets and children?
- It is a low-toxicity peppermint oil spray, but keep pets and children away from wet surfaces and avoid spraying directly on animals or food areas.
- Can I use it outdoors?
- Yes. It is labeled for indoor and outdoor use, such as garages, sheds and around entry points.
- Will it clear an existing mouse problem?
- Not on its own. Use it with sealing gaps, removing food and water sources, and traps or professional help for an established infestation.
- Does it stain surfaces?
- Peppermint oil sprays can leave residue or marks on some finishes, so test a small hidden spot first.
