The appearance of mice in a country house does not lead to anything good.
Uninvited "guests" can damage many plants and spoil the harvested crop.
There are several ways to combat rodents. Thus, many summer residents use various traps and poisons.
However, not all gardeners and vegetable growers are satisfied with such cruel methods.
Some people want to save the harvest and not harm the mice.
Fortunately, this is quite possible. It is enough to use "repellent" plants.
So, which representatives of flora are able to “drive away” rodents?
Chamomile
This plant has a strong aroma that mice don't like.
To drive away uninvited “guests” from your country house, it is enough to place picked daisies in the most vulnerable areas.
Tansy
The specific smell of tansy is extremely unpleasant for rodents.
You need to use a dry plant: just place it next to the harvested crop.
Sagebrush
This representative of the flora has such a strong smell that not only mice but also many other pests disappear.
Want to protect your crops? Plant wormwood around the perimeter of your plot.
However, you can limit yourself to scattering the collected wormwood.
Mint
The smell of this plant is not liked by mice, rats or various insects.
Elder
Planting elderberries and scattering branches of this plant are surefire ways to repel rodents.
