Any tips on how to fight these rodents?
Biodiversity is always more favourable than extreme methods. Some predators such as cats are very fond of rodents, so don’t hesitate to adopt a cat to chase away these parasites!
Always remember to clean the soil around your crops: the soil must be tamped down and the grass well cut.
Avoid mulching your crops. Rodents tend to camouflage themselves under the mulch which becomes a considerable refuge.
Protect your fruit trees by installing a kind of netting around the trunk that will act as a barrier against rodents. And remember to surround your plantings with hedges.
Around the areas to be protected, scatter ashes, crushed garlic cloves, mint leaves, etc.
To drive rodents out of your home once and for all, herbs should be applied systematically. Refresh houseplants once a week. Did you know about these properties of herbs?
