Ant Control:
- Spread some ground cinnamon where you think the ants are coming in to the house.
- Basil repels flies and mosquitoes. To deter ants, use catnip. Sprinkle it in their paths.
- Make a mixture of 2/3 cup water, 1/3 cup white vinegar, and 2-3 Tablespoons dish soap. Spray where The ants are marching.
- Place USED kitty litter from a litter box in small tubs in several places around the garage. Mice think... "it smells like a cat--must be a cat - I'm outta here!".
- Buy a mesh/net laundry bag that you would use for washing nylons and 5 boxes of moth balls. Put the moth balls in the bag and hang it in your garage near the door to get rid of mice, birds, and bugs.
- To prevent mice from gaining entry to your garage, stop up any openings with steel wood pads. Mice will not chew through these!
- Sprinkle ground cayenne pepper around the garage (inside & out), and especially near entry holes. Pests don't care for the smell of it.
- Mice hate the scent of peppermint extract. Simply sprinkle *pure* peppermint extract on the items in your garage you don't want the mice in or on.
