Ammonia mimics the smell of predator urine and can scare rats away. Fill small bowls with ammonia and place them around areas where rats are present. However, use this method with caution, as ammonia can be harmful if inhaled.
5. Cayenne Pepper
Sprinkling cayenne pepper around entry points or near suspected nests can repel rats. They dislike the heat and scent of the spice.
6. Plaster of Paris and Cocoa Powder
Create a mixture of plaster of Paris and cocoa powder. The sweetness of cocoa will attract the rats, but when they ingest the mixture, the plaster hardens inside their stomachs, leading to their eventual demise.
While these remedies can help repel or reduce rat populations, it’s essential to seal any entry points and keep food sources tightly sealed to prevent future infestations.
For long-term solutions or severe infestations, consider contacting a professional pest control service.
