hey everybody I just had to jump on
really quickly and say hello because
John and I have had like a miraculous
kind of miraculous event happen in our
lives recently we've got chucks in our
backyard and compost so we've had a
pretty big issue with rats and mice for
quite a few years we've even had a
little mouses that used to live in our
house and pop the heads out and say
hello that we thought were pretty cute
but they were starting to make a bit of
a mess to me a little bit annoying and
through this winter that seemed to
evaporated like for a lot of people to
become and under the house rat problem
so we were waking up in the middle of
the night hearing rats underneath our
house chewing our house apart we could
hear them nibbling on the wood and then
we started to get all this soil coming
up through our ducted heating and we
looked down the house and realized that
they'd decided to actually chew through
the heating ducts in our house and
decide that they were going to have a
nice cozy home in there we tried a few
things I'm very much an animal lover and
I don't like to hurt anything so we've
tried on and off for a long time to put
live traps in there to catch them so we
did this again and did all sorts of
baits to entice them and they were very
smart and didn't want to go near it so
that didn't work then I tried actual
baited humane traps they also didn't
want to go on you any of those are very
switched on rats these ones have been
around for a while nothing was working
and I was done drives insane and I was
getting really worried about our house
being destroyed by these rats
we even because we didn't know what else
to do and people just like you got to do
something I even put some rat bait out
and that didn't even work either they
didn't even eat it they didn't go near
it
they were just like no we're not doing
that so out of desperation which is
something that I should have just done
in the first place because my friend
misty had also done this and had huge
success but for some reason it just
didn't pop into my head at the time and
we pulled out our beloved
doterra peppermint oil and lo and behold
this for like quite a few weeks now just
using the peppermint oil the rats have
just packed up and disappeared like
they're just gone it's amazing
so all I did to do this like John my
partner was hearing them all night and
he just cannot believe it I should have
heard him here to have a rant about it
but it's amazing like we were even
considering getting like a pets company
to come in and remove them I thought
we'll just do this as one Moscow so all
I did was get a spray bottle this is
like two bucks from canine peppermint
oil probably about I put quite a lot in
there just because I wanted to
supercharge it so I put maybe 30 drops
of oil in this bottle you don't have to
better add it in a bit of you fill it
just because I don't like that either
and a little bit of tea tree maybe 10
drops of each of those put in this
bottle filled up with water and then I
just went under the house I thought I
was gonna have to do the whole under of
the house just to get rid of them all I
did was I got this spray bottle I gave
it a really good shake and I just
sprayed around the spots of the house
where I know they'd been where they bit
in the hole basically in the in the
ducted heating vent I just sprayed the
crap out of that spray like a few other
places I could reach I'd probably only
sprayed like a twentieth of the
underground area of the house so just
around some of the timber left it put a
couple of drops in the heating vents
through the house and we didn't hear
them that night you can hear the next
night it's now been probably almost a
month and they just seemed of completely
just disappeared
it's like amazing so if you've
got a rat problem and in a lot of people
hub and it can be mice as well and mice
have also disappeared this is all you
have to do it costs like nothing don't
get an exterminator out it's completely
natural
you're not even killing the rats they're
just leaving and going to live somewhere
else and making themselves a new home
they just really don't like it so that's
all you need spray bottle peppermint
amazing rats gone forever
yay have an awesome weekend guys if you
have any questions about that just shoot
me a message but
surely that's all you have to do spray
bottle 30 drops of peppermint water yeah
that's right if they're inside your
house you could just spray it around the
corners if you house anywhere that you
know they've been spray it they hate it
and they'll pack up shop and they'll
leave
