Pest control can be frustrating and ineffective because mice are smart and cunning.
Over time, they learn to avoid traps and poisons.
However, there is a humane and win-win option for fighting pests, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
What plants can drive away mice
Chamomile
Few people know that the smell of ordinary pharmacy chamomile is unpleasant for mice. This must be used without fail.
In addition, this useful plant should always be in your home medicine cabinet: with its help, you will improve the functioning of the nervous system and cope with a cold.
Tansy
This is one of the most valuable plants, which is used in the fight against many pests. Mice are also afraid of the smell of tansy.
Therefore, when weeding, think twice about whether it is worth removing tansy from the area. Wormwood has the same properties.
Tomatoes
A very effective remedy is to plant tomatoes on the plot. During pinching and thinning, the tops should not be removed - lay them out where rodents may appear.
