We have tried a few things such as the dryer sheets but we have gotten the best results with peppermint oil purchased at the health food store. A few drops on cotton balls which are placed under the cabinets and the mice seem to avoid us. We refresh them about once a month. I laughed when I first heard of this thinking that the peppermint would actually attract them but now we are a believer. It seems like mice have differing tastes around the country because of the many sucessful strategies employed by our MOC family.
