DIY Magic Candle: A Quick and Effective Home Remedy to Repel Rats

Safety Tips

Never Leave a Burning Candle Unattended: Always keep an eye on the candle while it’s burning. Do not place it near flammable materials or leave it in areas accessible to children or pets.
Regular Application: For best results, reapply the peppermint oil and relight the candle as needed, especially after it has burned down significantly.
Ventilation: While peppermint oil is safe for humans, the strong scent might be overwhelming in closed spaces. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
