Homemade method to scare away rats using a candle

Preparation:

1. Crush the candlestick to create a powdered form.
2. In a separate bowl, grind the peanuts until they resemble coarse sand.
3. Mix the ground peanuts with the sugar, ensuring they are well combined.
4. Gradually add the powdered candle to the peanut and sugar mixture, stirring thoroughly until fully blended.

Application:

• Once the mixture is prepared, place it in containers and position them in areas where rats have been seen or are likely to visit.

Rats are attracted to the sugar and peanut mixture, but the powdered candle will act as a deterrent, potentially discouraging them from returning.

While this DIY method can help manage rat issues, it’s important to maintain cleanliness and take preventive measures to reduce the risk of rat infestations. Additionally, this approach offers a cost-effective and non-chemical alternative that is safe for both humans and pets.

Remember, while effective, this method should complement regular cleaning and ongoing efforts to discourage rats from entering your home.
