Squeeze a generous amount of toothpaste onto cotton balls or into small disposable containers like bottle caps.

Strategically Place the Toothpaste:
Place the toothpaste cotton balls or containers near known pest entry points — under sinks, behind appliances, in pantry corners, and near small cracks and openings.

Refresh as Needed:
Replace the toothpaste traps every 7–10 days, or sooner if the smell begins to fade.

Optional Boost:
Add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to each toothpaste ball for an even stronger pest-repelling effect. Peppermint overwhelms pests’ senses, making your home an even less inviting place.
