Tea Bags: A Surprising Solution to Keep Spiders and Mice Away - Page 2

Cool the Used Tea Bags: Allow the used tea bags to cool after you’ve enjoyed your tea. If they are too wet, squeeze out some of the excess liquid to prevent dripping.

Place the Tea Bags: Distribute the cooled tea bags in areas where spiders and mice frequent or where they might enter your home. This includes corners, baseboards, near doorways, and windows, or any small nooks where these pests could hide.

Replace Regularly: To maintain the effectiveness of this method, replace the tea bags every 1-2 weeks or after they dry out completely. This ensures that the aroma remains strong enough to keep the pests at bay.

Additional Tips

For an even stronger deterrent, you can add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to the tea bags before placing them around your home. The intensified smell will enhance the repellent effect and is likely to cover a larger area.

Using tea bags as a natural repellent offers a pleasant-smelling, chemical-free option for keeping spiders and mice away from your living spaces. It’s an eco-friendly and economical solution that can make a big difference in maintaining a peaceful and pest-free home. Give it a try and enjoy the added benefits of a fresh, minty aroma in your house!
