Repelling Squirrels with Peppermint Oil
- 1). Soak cotton balls in peppermint oil, allowing each ball to become saturated with liquid.
- 2). Place the cotton balls in the corners of attics, wall openings, garages or anywhere you need to repel squirrels.
- 3). Check on the cotton balls every few weeks to make sure they still have a peppermint odor. When the odor fades, discard the old ball and soak another cotton ball in peppermint oil to replace it.
