Struggling to deal with uninvited visitors creeping into your home now that winter is here? (and no, we don't mean your in-laws inviting themselves around for Christmas dinner).<\/p>\n
Mice typically invade the home around this time of year, as it gets colder outside and food gets scarce and they can be very tricky to get rid of.<\/p>\n
However, one woman has shared a genius hack for repelling rodents, using four things you have lying around in your cupboard.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Yvette Madrid shared the tip on her TikTok channel, where she is known as @only.1.rae.<\/p>\n
In a video, the nifty mum said: "Hi everyone, it's that time of year where unexpected guests come uninvited – here's how to get rid of them."<\/p>\n
Yvette then pulled out some tiny favour bags and showed viewers the household items she puts inside them to get rid of pesky rodents.<\/p>\n
The first thing that Yvette put into the bags was a peppermint teabag.<\/p>\n "They hate the smell", she explained.<\/p>\n The mum then added cinnamon, cloves and some pepper flakes to the bag.<\/p>\n She said: Close the bags and then put them in closets or under cabinets, wherever you want!"<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Yvette explained that the mice are repelled by any spice that has a strong smell – so you can use alternatives if you don't own the four items used in the video.<\/p>\n She added that she changes the bags when the spices start to lose their smell.<\/p>\n TikTok users flooded to the comments to praise Yvette for her hack.<\/p>\n One user said: "Thanks for the tip. Hopefully they stay away this year."<\/p>\n Another user added: "Thank you. My home thanks you lol".<\/p>\n A third added: "Thanks. I brought some cinnamon brooms and put them in my locker at work. I may need to try this next<\/span>."<\/p>\n Fabulous will pay for your exclusive stories.
