The homeowners were dealing with a significant mouse problem throughout their home. Mouse activity had been reported in the kitchen, dining and living areas, closets, upstairs bedrooms and crawlspace, and previous attempts using poisons and traps had resulted in dead mice being found in multiple areas of the house.

With small dogs in the home, the family wanted a different approach—one focused on driving mice away and helping prevent them from returning, rather than continuing to rely on poisons and traps.

The Rodents Away Approach

Because this was a difficult and persistent mouse problem, and the homeowner agreed to let us document the experience with video and use it as a case study, a member of the Rodents Away team visited the property to assess the situation and help develop a placement and prevention strategy.

The inspection identified several factors that could be contributing to the problem, including nesting material, clutter, access to insulation and a likely exterior entry point.

The recommended approach was straightforward:

• Clean and remove nesting opportunities in areas showing mouse activity.
• Strategically place Rodents Away Odor Free sachets throughout active areas of the home and crawlspace.
• Allow mice an opportunity to leave rather than immediately sealing every opening.
• Seal identified entry points after mouse activity had declined.
• Maintain Rodents Away sachets near previously active areas to help discourage mice from returning.

The Result

Within approximately 2–3 weeks, the homeowner reported a substantial reduction in mouse activity.

According to the homeowner, they caught fewer and fewer mice in their traps until they felt the traps were no longer needed. They also reported that while neighbors were continuing to experience mouse problems, their own home was no longer experiencing the same issue.

The homeowner—who had initially been skeptical—was pleased enough with the result that they purchased additional Rodents Away Odor Free sachets for ongoing prevention.

Before: Severe and recurring mouse activity throughout multiple areas of the home, despite the previous use of traps and poison.

After: Mouse activity reportedly declined to the point that the homeowner felt traps were no longer necessary within approximately 2–3 weeks.

What This Case Demonstrates

For this home, Rodents Away Odor Free was used as part of a broader strategy to drive mice away, address conditions that were allowing them to remain in the home, and help prevent their return.

Rather than continually dealing with mice after they entered the house, the homeowners were able to shift toward a more proactive approach focused on repelling mice and reducing opportunities for re-entry.

About This Case Study

This is a real-world observational case study involving a single home, not a controlled laboratory trial. Results were reported by the homeowner and were not independently verified. The home had a severe mouse problem and received on-site guidance and heavier-than-standard product placement as part of a special filmed collaboration. Cleaning, Rodents Away Odor Free sachets and entry-point sealing were used together, so the reported outcome should be considered the result of the overall approach rather than attributed to any single intervention. Individual results may vary.
