well ive just been out at the aviaries when i saw a mouse running along the roof so quickly got in the aviary and tried killing the mouse between the wire nd the roof but missed he then dropped down to the bushes so whacked him out of them and then he fell on the floor nd he quickly ran of but i was quick enough to give him another quick whack got him but only his back legs so he ran off again nd there was a terracota bowl on the floor that he went to hide behin so i gave another whack got the mouse aswell as the bowl OUCh just say mouse 1 chris 0 but now have a dead mosue + sore hand would rather a sore hand than a extra mouse running around
just thought id let use know lol never play with mice around terracota bowls lol

The health benefits of peppermint oil include its ability to treat indigestion, respiratory problems, headache, nausea, fever, stomach and bowel spasms and pain.
So not only does it NOT work against meeces it actually may in fact cure any little ailments they have and encourage them to stay .
