MintGuard vs poison, traps and ultrasonic repellers
There are four common ways UK households deal with rats and mice. Here's how they compare.
Rat poison
Poison kills, but a poisoned rodent often dies somewhere you can't reach, under floorboards or inside walls, and the smell follows. It's also a worry around children, dogs and cats. MintGuard contains no poison.
Snap traps and live traps
Traps catch one at a time, need checking and emptying, and rats in particular can become wary of them. MintGuard has nothing to set or empty.
Ultrasonic plug-ins
Ultrasonic repellers are easy to plug in, but sound doesn't travel through walls or furniture, and many users find rodents get used to them. MintGuard balls can sit inside cupboards, lofts and engine bays where there's no socket.
Peppermint sachets and cotton wool
Peppermint oil is the right idea, but soaked cotton wool or loose sachets fade within days. MintGuard's pressed TripleSense balls are built to keep releasing scent for 30 to 60 days.
Which should you choose?
If you already have a serious infestation, call a professional. If you want to keep rodents from moving in this winter, without poison or traps, MintGuard is the simplest option to use and live with.
