Vishnevsky ointment for mice and rats!

A common problem for residents of private homes and cellar owners is the sudden appearance of mice or rats, which poses a particular danger. Sometimes, unconventional measures are required to combat them. One such method is eliminating them with Vishnevsky ointment.

Why are rodents dangerous?

Regardless of where mice and rats appear and in what numbers, their appearance causes a number of dangers:

• damage to objects, furniture, books and clothing;
• damage to fruit trees in the garden;
• aggressive behavior towards small animals – chickens, piglets or rabbits;
• transmission of dangerous diseases and infections.

The last point is the most serious. Since rodents can come into contact with many human personal items or food, there's a high risk of contracting diseases such as tuberculosis, fever, diphtheria, and others. Some of these can be fatal.

Application of Vishnevsky ointment

It's not always easy to find a rodent trap or a ready-made solution. In this case, "grandmother's" methods can be helpful. One folk remedy for eliminating rats and mice is Vishnevsky ointment. It works by creating an unpleasant odor that repels the pests and makes them flee the premises. There are several ways to use it:

1. Liberally coat a cloth or cotton wool with the medication. Place them in areas where rodents have been seen.
2. Squeeze a few drops around the perimeter of the room or cellar.
3. Dilute the ointment with water to create a liquid solution. Wash the floor with it. This method is effective for eliminating pests in garages, warehouses, and other non-residential spaces.
4. Create a bait. Place food in the same spot for several days, then sprinkle a small amount of the treatment on the same spot.

Precautionary measures

To ensure a positive and safe pest control effect, please read a few tips before treatment:

• After eliminating rats or mice, concrete over their holes to prevent new pests from appearing in that area;
• Do not allow the ointment to be in areas open to children. If rats have appeared in a residential area of ​​a private house, then temporarily move to another room or carry out the treatment in a place inaccessible to them;
• protect your hands with gloves to avoid possible allergic reactions;
• It is not recommended to poison rodents in this way for pregnant women and people with any respiratory diseases due to the specific odor.

If you've managed to get rid of rats and mice, immediately ventilate the area and thoroughly disinfect it to eliminate the smell of Vishnevsky ointment and prevent the spread of infection. In the future, avoid leaving food out in the open and close all spaces in your home or non-residential premises to prevent their reappearance.
