How To Instructions

Mouse Repellent Pouches

Product Use:

1) Remove pouches from silver bag

2) Place one pouch along each wall of room, 1 per cab or 4 per RV. Each pouch covers 50 square feet

3) Replace when smell diminishes

More Tips:

Place pouches near areas where past mouse activity has been noticed. Typically mice look for entry points into a home. ie. around water pipes, drain pipes, small openings. They can squeeze into openings as small as 1/4”. Trying to locate entry points helps to optimize the use of Grandpa Gus bags. Use as many bags as required, for all suspected entry points.

Each pouch is scented. It may last up to 3 months, depending on air flow. More air flow, lessens length of time of use. Use the Grandpa Gus Spray to recharge the bags as often as you wish. Every few weeks, spray each pouch 6-7 times, to enhance the scent deterrent.

Replacement and Storage:

Pouches will last up to 3 months depending on the air flow circulating through the product. Less airflow is better. Therefore, once opened, roll up original packaging and use tin-tie to seal in order to preserve remaining pouches.

Mouse Repellent Spray

Product Use:

1) Shake Bottle Well

2) Ensure surface being sprayed is dry

3) Spray one coat of repellent on or along surface or wiring until wet but not to the point of runoff.

4) Wait until dry, then apply spray again.

Replacement and Storage:

Mice will run through or chew the dried residual. It is NOT the scent that repels mice. Therefore, as long as surface is coated repellent will continue working. Re-apply if area becomes wet, dusty or hot, such as a car motor. Works best indoors.

It is advised not to let the bottle freeze.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1) How long are the pouches good for?

Up to three months depending on air flow. In small enclosed spaces, the scent will remain longer. We recommend you re-spray the pouches if you think they need a scent recharge. It won’t hurt to develop a routine to respray the pouches every few weeks, with 6-7 sprays, just to ensure the optimum effectiveness of Grandpa Gus products.

2) Can I re-spray the pouches with the spray?

Yes.

3) How Many Pouches Do I Need In My...?

Car - One in the cab, one in the trunk
RV - One near the bed, one in the cab, one in the bathroom, one in the wiring/storage compartment
Home/Cabin - ideally one along each wall of the room you're trying to protect, but the typical bedroom can get away with two if you spray the spray along the baseboards
Garage - it's probably better to spray along the walls with the spray and use the pouches to protect storage boxes, vehicles, etc. You'll get more out of the pouches this way

4) Can I touch the pouches with my bare hands?

Yes.

5) Can I breathe in the smell?

Yes.

6) Is it safe / Will this hurt my dog / cat / kid / etc?

No. The active ingredients are simply plant oils.

7) What are the ingredients?

Each product has ingredients on the label as required by EPA law.

The ingredients that repel mice in both products are peppermint and cinnamon.

The inactive ingredients in the pouches are minerals and soap.

The inactive ingredients in the spray are sodium lauryl sulfate (which is common in toothpaste, shampoo, etc) and water.

8) What are the "*Other Ingredients"?

Check the * underneath "Total" on the front label. You'll see the other ingredients are vermiculite and soap in the pouches, sodium lauryl sulfate and water in the spray.

This * is the standard way of writing these types of labels.

9) Can I Use This Outdoors?

These products work best indoors.

10) Can These Products Best Used On Rats?

Many people tell us they do use these products for rats, but we only claim to repel mice.
