Rodents require a slightly different approach, yet the core idea remains the same. The mixture begins with uncooked rice. A bit of sugar or cocoa is added, both of which serve as attractants because mice and rats have a strong sense of smell and a notable preference for sweet or fragrant foods. The final ingredient is baking soda. While harmless to humans in small amounts, it has a strong effect on rodents once ingested. The rice acts as a carrier that holds everything together. This mixture is placed along walls, near entry points, or beside known pathways. Rodents tend to travel with their bodies brushing against vertical surfaces, so these pathways are predictable. The placement of the mixture takes advantage of these habits and increases its effectiveness without the need for aggressive methods that may harm the larger environment of the home.
What makes this approach especially interesting is how well it blends with other natural deterrents. Peppermint oil can be dabbed onto cotton balls and placed near sinks, behind appliances, or in cupboards. The strong scent is pleasant to people but overwhelming to rodents and insects. Bay leaves can be set inside kitchen drawers or pantry shelves. Garlic or fresh cucumber peels can be placed near areas where activity is noticed. None of these items are harsh, and yet together they create a space that feels unwelcome to pests.
