Nobody wants to deal with the problem of rats, but many summer residents are forced to fight these pests.
Therefore, it is worth knowing how to drive rats away from your dacha.
Which methods can be identified as the most effective?
Go to the country with your cat
If you have a cat, its smell alone will repel pests. However, you need to make sure that the animal has all the necessary vaccinations.
It is also important to protect your pet from ticks and fleas.
Mint
An interesting fact is that this plant can keep rats away from the dacha. Both the essential oil of mint and the plant itself, fresh and dry, have an effect.
Plant ornamental varieties of tansy
This plant will help drive mice and rats away from the area, so tansy should be planted near the house, sheds and other places that attract pests.
It is best to choose beautiful decorative varieties.
Sagebrush
This plant should be placed where rats might try to get into the house. Wormwood has a very strong aroma, so rats do not like it.
