Dealing with rats and mice can be a nightmare for homeowners. They damage gardens, eat crops, and spread disease. Traps and poisons work, but they are harmful to humans and pets. Fortunately, there is a natural and safe solution: defensive plants. These plants emit odors that we may find pleasant or neutral, but that rodents find unbearable, making them an effective and humane way to keep these pests at bay.
Discover the best plants to repel rodents:
Tansy: A friend of gardeners, tansy is both a fungicide and an insecticide. Its fragrant flowers deter mice and various insects. It is easy to maintain and effective in decoction to protect the garden.
Elderberry: Elderberry roots and flowers are often grown near campsites and have a strong odor and natural poison that repels rodents such as rats and moles. Elderberry manure in particular has an odor that rodents find repulsive.
Wormwood: Wormwood is known for its insecticidal properties and effectively repels rodents. Plant it near your garden or spray a decoction on areas where rodents are present. Dried wormwood can also be used in indoor moth repellent bags
