While rats can be a real nuisance in any home, the solution to eradicating them does not always require toxic poisons or complex traps. Sometimes the most effective methods come from the most unusual ingredients.
In this article, we present a technique that Vick Vaporub uses, that ointment that many have at home, to keep these rodents away.
Ingredients
3 sweet cookies of any type
1 tbsp. of Bicarbonate
1 tsp Vick Vaporub
Preparation
Crush the cookies until you obtain a fine powder.
Add the baking soda to the ground cookies and mix well.
Add the teaspoon of Vick Vaporub to the mixture and knead with your fingers until you obtain a homogeneous dough.
Divide the resulting dough into several portions and form small balls or piles.
Place 2 or 3 of these portions in a container and leave it in a place where you suspect rats are or walk.
With this method, you will attract rats thanks to the sweet aroma of the cookies, but the Vick Vaporub and baking soda will act to repel or eradicate them.
