How to Use Coffee Grounds

  1. Identify Entry Points: Start by determining where mice or rats could be entering your home. Pay close attention to gaps around doors, windows, and holes where pipes enter walls.
  2. Place Coffee Grounds: Whether you have fresh or used coffee grounds, you can use them for this purpose. If you enjoy a daily cup of coffee, save the grounds for repelling rodents. Place the grounds near potential entry points and in corners of your basement, attic, and garage.
  3. Refresh Regularly: Over time, coffee grounds lose their effectiveness. To maintain a strong odor, it’s important to replace the grounds once a week.
