Summer is when rodent populations boom as they stockpile food and materials for the winter, meaning it's important to keep them out of your house.
It's every homeowner's worst nightmare. One minute you're relaxing on the couch and the next you spot a mouse or a rat scuttling away in the corner.
However, according to experts, there are simple ways to deter the pests which don't involve using traps or dangerous chemicals - and they're affordable too. A rather unknown but highly effective way to deter mice from entering your home is using steel wool. Mice can squeeze through tiny gaps and holes, but fortunately for homeowners up and down the country, they find it impossible to chew through steel wool.
