If peppermint oil is not available, you can replace it with eucalyptus or tea tree oil, both of which also act as effective repellents.
For a stronger scent, add a few cloves of crushed garlic to the repellent mix for extra power in deterring pests.
If Borax is unavailable, you can substitute it with diatomaceous earth, which works similarly to eliminate pests by dehydrating them.
FAQ:

How long does it take for this solution to work?

You’ll start seeing results within a few hours. Rats and roaches typically avoid the areas treated with peppermint oil, and many pests will be eliminated by the bait mixture by the end of the day.
Is this solution safe for pets and children?

The peppermint oil spray is generally safe if kept out of reach of children and pets. However, the bait mixture contains Borax, which is harmful if ingested. Keep it in areas where pets and small children cannot access.
Can I use these methods outdoors?

These remedies work indoors in areas where rats and roaches are commonly found. For outdoor use, ensure that the solutions are applied in sheltered, dry locations where they won’t wash away quickly.
How do I know if the remedy is working?

Check the bait areas for dead pests within the first 24 hours. The repellent spray should keep rats and roaches away from the treated areas. If you continue to see activity, reapply the treatment or try different variations.
By following these simple, natural solutions, you can quickly eliminate rats and roaches, making your home a cleaner, more comfortable place to live.
