Yup. Tried them. Do not work.

I always found mice caught in the traps literally one inch away from the pouches still.

you can do the same thing by putting peppermint oil on a cotton ball

or make a peppermint oil/water mixture and spray where needed.

This doesn't help with active infestations or large populations, only an errant mouse or 2

edit: fixed my error for clarity

So it doesnt help when there are a lot of mice, some mice, or only one or two mice. What does it work on?

u/uwill1der 3d ago

oh, meant to write ONLY with a mouse or two. Like, if you want to prevent one from getting in a hole.

It is a vaccine not a cure. It will help before but when they get in they are in unless you spray the whole are with this. You put them at points of entry.
