See… most people think that you have to find a way to trap or kill the mice… 

But what happens if you do kill the mice in your home?

There are other mice out there, they multiply like vermin, so within 30 minutes…

You already have a hungry disease ridden pack of vermin ready to invade your home.

THOSE are the mice you have to worry about. And this is what EXTERMINATORS do not want you to know. 

And here’s the shocking story of how I found this out. 

The morning I found mouse droppings in Emma's Frozen lunchbox, I SCREAMED, as I threw the lunchbox onto the ground… and I literally dropped to my knees on the kitchen floor sobbing.

Not just because of the disgusting pellets scattered across the Elsa image my 7-year-old daughter loved. 

But because in that moment, I realized I had failed at the most basic job a mother has: keeping her child safe.

For three months, I had been lying to myself. Telling myself we had it "under control." 

That the mice were "just in the garage" or "only in the basement."

But here they were. In my kitchen.

Mice Poop Littered In My Daughter's Lunchbox.

I nearly GAGGED, because this was the same lunchbox she'd been using all week.

I'm sharing this story because if you've ever dealt with rodents in your home, you know the shame that comes with it. 

The fear. 

The helplessness.

The disgusting rats that poop everywhere and stink up your home. 

You may know the scratching sounds inside your walls, wondering if your family is safe from the diseases they carry.

‍You Know The Terror Of Googling "Can Mice Cause House Fires?"...

And Reading That 25% Of Unexplained House Fires Are Caused By Rodent Damage To Electrical Wiring.

And if you're like I was, you've probably spent thousands of dollars on solutions that didn't work. You've been told by "professionals" that rodents are "just part of homeownership" and you need to "learn to live with it."

But here's what those professionals don't tell you...

There's a simple, 30-second “Green Trick”  that can turn your home into a rodent-free sanctuary.

Without poison, without traps, and without spending thousands more dollars.

THIS is kid-friendly, pet safe, and doesn’t leave a horrifying toxic odour. 

This has already helped over 267,000 families reclaim their homes. And three months ago, it saved mine.

Let me explain what happened.

The Problem Started Small (They Always Do)

"Honey, come look at this," my husband called from the basement.

Small, dark pellets scattered near the water heater. 

We both knew immediately what they were, but neither of us wanted to say it out loud.

"Probably just one mouse," David said, grabbing a broom. "I'll set a trap tonight."

Famous last words.

Within two weeks, we were finding droppings everywhere. 

In front of the refrigerator.

Under the sink. 

In the pantry. 

In my DAUGHTERS closet. 

I'd wipe down counters three, four times a day. 

I threw away half our pantry food. 

I bleached everything.

But every morning, there they were again. 

Fresh droppings. 

New evidence of our unwelcome roommates.

The scratching sounds started next.

Late at night, we'd hear them scurrying inside the walls. 

Sometimes it sounded like they were racing through the ductwork. 

Other times, we'd hear gnawing sounds that made my skin crawl.

Emma started having trouble sleeping.

"Mommy, I hear the mice again," she'd whisper, crawling into our bed at God knows what hour in the night. 

My heart would break every single time.

And one night, I even woke up to my daughter screaming from a nightmare, frantically repeating…

“The house is on fire!”

“The house is on FIRE!”

“HELP! The HOUSE IS ON FIRE!!!”

We couldn’t live like this any more. 

$4,200 Later, We Were Still Losing the War

After a month of failed DIY attempts, I finally called in the professionals.

The first exterminator, from a big-name company, did a full inspection. 

He pointed out gaps around pipes, cracks in the foundation, and holes near the garage door.

"You've got a pretty significant rodent invasion here," he said, scribbling on his clipboard. 

"We're looking at multiple entry points and an established colony."

Colony. 

The word made me nauseous.

He quoted me $1,800 for the initial treatment, plus $300 monthly for "maintenance visits."

I signed the contract on the spot. At that point, I would have paid anything.

They came three times over six weeks. 

Set poison bait stations in the basement, garage, and attic. 

Sealed up some holes with steel wool and foam.

For about two weeks, things seemed better. 

Quieter.

Then one morning, Emma came running into our bedroom, screaming.

Our dog, Max, was lying on the kitchen floor, drooling and trembling. 

He'd found a dead mouse that had eaten the poison. 

And Max, being a dog, had eaten the mouse.

One little girl jumped onto the couch. 

Another started crying.

 The mothers exchanged that look—the one that says, "Oh my God, they have mice."

"Everyone outside!" I awkwardly announced, trying to sound cheerful.

 "Let's do the treasure hunt” I yelled, holding back tears.

But the damage was done.

Two mothers immediately said they "needed to get going." They were out the door in five minutes, practically dragging their daughters with them, who didn’t want to leave.

Emma said that I was “the WORST mother in the world for ruining her birthday party.”

But I didn’t do anything… I wasn’t the disgusting mouse that crawled across the floor… but she still blamed me, can you believe it? 

"I can't do this anymore," I told David. "We're those people with the disgusting house."

He held me and promised we'd figure it out.

But I didn't believe him. Not anymore.

The Moment Everything Changed

Three days after the birthday party disaster, I was sitting on my front porch, probably looking as miserable as I felt.

My neighbor, Linda, walked over with two cups of coffee.

"Honey," she said, sitting down beside me. "I heard about the party. I'm so sorry."

I tried to hold it together, but the tears came anyway.

"We've tried everything, Linda. Two different exterminators. Poison. Traps. We've spent over $4,000 and they just keep coming back. I don't know what else to do."

I knew that there was NO way anybody would buy our house with a mouse infestation… we didn’t have the money to move or get an apartment… we were trapped… trapped in a prison full of disgusting mice. 

Then Linda, after being quiet for a moment, shared something… 

"Rachel, I Need To Tell You Something. Two Years Ago, We Had The Exact Same Problem. Maybe Worse…"

I looked at her in shock. Linda's house was always immaculate. I'd never seen a single sign of pests.

"What did you do?" I asked.

"Well, first I spent about six months doing exactly what you're doing. Exterminators, poison, traps. Nothing worked. Then my sister-in-law, who works in agriculture, told me about something the farming industry has been using for years."

Linda explained that her sister-in-law had worked with a pest control expert who specialized in natural, pheromone-based rodent control.

"Here's what he told me," Linda said. "The problem with poison and traps is they only kill individual mice. But they do nothing about the real issue."

"What real issue?" I asked.

"Pheromone trails."

‍The Hidden Truth About Why Rodents Keep Coming Back

This is the part that nobody tells you. 

The part the big pest control companies hope you never learn.

According to research from Kansas State University, mice leave behind invisible pheromone trails everywhere they go. 

These chemical markers tell other mice: 

"Safe route. Food here. No danger."

Here's why this matters:

Even if you kill every single mouse in your home, those pheromone trails remain. 

They can last for months, guiding new mice right back to the exact same spots.

It's like leaving a glowing neon sign that says "FREE FOOD AND SHELTER" visible only to rodents.

Poison doesn't remove these trails. 

Traps don't remove them. 

Even professional extermination doesn't address them.

That's why you can spend thousands of dollars and still have mice coming back within weeks.

But it gets worse.

According to a study published by The Korean Society of Veterinary Science, mice are now developing resistance to common rodenticides. 

In some populations, up to 74-85% of mice show significant resistance to chemicals that used to work perfectly.

You know what this means?

For poisons to keep working… the exterminators have to load your house with strong and stronger poisons, right?

And who gets to SUFFER from those stronger poisons? You. Your kids. Your pets.

Do you really want stronger poisons around your beloved family?

The pest control industry knows this. 

But there's no profit in telling you about it.

Think about it: If they sell you a $20 solution that works permanently, they lose a customer. 

But if they sell you a $2,000 treatment that only works temporarily, you become a recurring revenue stream.

Linda's sister-in-law explained all of this to her. And then she told her about the solution that actually works.

The "Force Field Effect" That Agriculture Has Used For Decades To Banish Mice, Rats, And Vermin

“How do you think these GIANT factory farms keep disgusting mice and vermin out?” asked Linda.

“If we didn’t ALREADY know how to banish every single mouse from a building… wouldn’t ALL of our food be filled with disgusting germs and disease from thousands of mice?”

This made so much sense to me as I nodded… 

"What the farming industry discovered," Linda told me, "is that certain plant-based compounds don't just repel mice—they actually disrupt their entire navigation and comfort system."

She explained that peer-reviewed research testing over 2,000 different scents found that specific essential oils trigger panic responses in the rodent brain.

Not just "I don't like this smell" responses. 

Actual biological panic.

The kind of instinctual terror that's been hardwired into mouse DNA for millions of years.

"First, they trigger the fear response in the amygdala—the part of the brain that controls survival instincts. Mice detect these scents and their brains literally scream 'PREDATOR NEARBY. RUN.'"

"Second, they overwhelm the mouse's sense of smell, which is about 1,000 times more sensitive than ours. Imagine if every smell you encountered was amplified a thousand times. It's completely disorienting."

"And third—this is the genius part—these compounds actually neutralize and override those pheromone trails I mentioned. They essentially erase the 'safe route' markers and replace them with 'DANGER ZONE' signals."

The result? 

Mice won't just avoid the area. 

They'll flee from it. 

And they'll tell every other mouse in the colony to stay away.

Plus, unlike poison, mice can't build up a resistance to these compounds.

 The fear response is too deeply embedded in their biology.

It's been used successfully in:

• Commercial grain storage facilities (where a single rodent can contaminate thousands of pounds of food)
• Hospital cafeterias and food service areas (where poison is too risky)
• Hotels and restaurants (where visible traps would horrify guests)
• Residential homes across Europe and Asia (where it's been the standard for years)

"So where do I get this?" I asked Linda, already pulling out my phone.

"It's called Vamoose," she said. "And it completely changed our lives."

How Three Simple Ingredients Create An Impenetrable Defense

When I got home, I immediately researched everything Linda had told me.

She was right. 

The science was solid.

Vamoose uses three specific plant-based active ingredients that work together to create what researchers call a "multi-sensory repellent barrier":

Ingredient #1: Cornmint Oil

According to the study Linda's sister-in-law had mentioned from The Korean Society of Veterinary Science, cornmint triggers an immediate panic response in the AmPir region of the rodent brain.

This is the same brain region that activates when a mouse detects predator urine. 

The response is instant and overwhelming: DROP EVERYTHING AND RUN.

The study found that mice could detect cornmint from up to 164 feet away and would actively avoid areas where it was present.

Ingredient #2: Citronella Oil

Research by Dr. Irmanida Batubara found that citronella oil doesn't just repel rodents, it literally overwhelms their olfactory system.

Remember, mice rely on their sense of smell for everything: finding food, navigating, detecting danger, following pheromone trails.

Citronella creates what scientists describe as "olfactory confusion", essentially blinding them to all the scent markers they depend on.

In Dr. Batubara's five-week study, rodents exposed to citronella lost their appetite and became increasingly stressed and disoriented.

Ingredient #3: Linseed Oil

This is the multiplier that makes everything else work longer and stronger.

Linseed oil acts as a carrier and slow-release mechanism. 

It traps the cornmint and citronella molecules and releases them gradually over time, extending protection to 60 days per pouch.

It also helps the oils adhere to surfaces, creating a more thorough coverage area.

The result: 

A three-pronged assault on rodent comfort that forces them to flee and prevents new mice from entering.

No poison. No dead bodies. No resistance buildup.

Just plant-based active ingredients that tap into millions of years of evolutionary fear responses.

Why Hasn't Your Exterminator Told You About This?

This was the question I couldn't stop asking myself.

If this solution is so effective, and it's been used in agriculture and commercial settings for years, why was this the first I'd heard of it?

The answer, unfortunately, is simple: 

Money.

A traditional pest control company makes money through recurring service contracts. 

The business model depends on you needing them to come back month after month, year after year.

If they sold you a solution that actually solved your problem permanently—or even for several months at a time—they'd lose that recurring revenue.

Think about what they charge:

• Initial inspection and treatment: $500-$2,000
• Monthly "maintenance" visits: $200-$400
• Annual contracts: $2,400-$4,800

Now compare that to a natural solution that costs under $100 and lasts 60 days.

There's simply no financial incentive for them to tell you about alternatives.

Plus, they're set up to handle poison and traps. 

They're not set up to source, mix, and distribute essential oil-based repellents. 

It would require retooling their entire business model.

According to Gary Chen, a former pest control technician turned natural pest advocate:

The traditional pest control industry is worth $20.6 billion in the United States alone. 

They're not going to disrupt their own profit model by telling you about a $30 solution.

But BugMD, the company behind Vamoose, doesn't work that way.

They're a direct-to-consumer company with no service contracts, no monthly fees, and no financial incentive to keep you trapped in a cycle of recurring treatments.

They just make one product that works. And they let the results speak for themselves.

"I Was Skeptical. But I Was Also Desperate."

The next day, I ordered a bundle of Vamoose pouches.

I'll be honest—I was skeptical.

After spending $4,200 on solutions that didn't work, I was pretty cynical about anything that seemed "too easy."

But I was also desperate. 

And Linda's endorsement meant something. She didn't BS about things like this.

The pouches arrived three days later in discreet packaging. (Thank God—I'd had enough neighborhood judgment to last a lifetime.)

Each pouch was about the size of a tea bag, filled with a blend of the three essential oils Linda had told me about. 

They had a strong but not unpleasant smell—minty and fresh, with citrus notes.

The instructions were simple:

Step 1: Place pouches in areas where you've seen rodent activity—under sinks, in pantries, near entry points, in basements, attics, and garages.

Step 2: Wait. The pouches work by themselves, releasing the plant-based active ingredients gradually over time.

Step 3: Replace every 60 days.

That was it. No complicated setup. No dangerous chemicals. No dead bodies to clean up.

I placed pouches in every spot I'd seen evidence of mice:

• Four pouches in the basement near the water heater and foundation
• Two in the garage near the door
• Three in the kitchen—under the sink, behind the refrigerator, in the pantry
• Two in the attic
• One in each bathroom under the sinks
• Two in the laundry room

I used about 15 pouches total for our 2,400-square-foot home.

Then I waited.

And I'm not going to lie—that first night, I didn't sleep much. I kept listening for the scratching sounds. Expecting to hear them. Waiting for the disappointment of yet another failed solution.

But I didn't hear anything.

By morning, something felt... different.

The Results Were Almost Immediate

Day 1: 

No scratching sounds at night. 

For the first time in three months, Emma slept in her own bed all night.

Day 2: 

No new droppings in any of the usual spots. 

I checked every single place I'd been finding them. 

Nothing.

Day 3: 

I heard rustling in the garage. 

Went out to investigate and actually SAW a mouse. 

But instead of scurrying deeper into the garage like they usually did, it ran straight for the gap under the garage door and disappeared outside.

It was leaving.

Day 5: 

I pulled out the refrigerator (something I'd been too scared to do for weeks). 

No droppings. 

No smell. 

Nothing.

Week 2: 

Total silence. 

No scratching. 

No droppings. 

No evidence of any rodent activity whatsoever.

I kept checking. 

Kept waiting for them to come back.

But they didn't.

By week three, I started to believe it was actually working.

By week four, I invited Linda over for coffee just to show her.

"Linda, I don't know how to thank you," I said, my voice cracking. "We haven't seen a single sign of mice in almost a month. The house is quiet. Emma is sleeping again. I feel like I have my life back."

She just smiled and said, "That's exactly how I felt. Welcome back to normal life."

The Science Says Vamoose Works. The Reviews Say It Works. My Home Proves It Works.

The reviews kept going. 

Over 20,000 five-star ratings from families just like mine who'd been fighting the same battle.

But what really struck me were the stories from people who'd tried everything else first:

Professional exterminators. 

Poison. 

Traps. 

Ultrasonic devices. 

All the same expensive, ineffective solutions I'd tried.

And Vamoose was what finally worked.

Patricia S. from Alabama wrote:

Reading these reviews, I realized something important: 

I wasn't a failure as a homeowner or a mother. I'd just been sold solutions that were never designed to actually solve the problem.

The moment I found something that addressed the real issue—the pheromone trails and the rodents' biological fear responses—the problem disappeared.

Three Months Later: Our Home Is Finally Ours Again

It's been three months since I first used Vamoose.

I'm writing this from my living room, the same living room where that mouse ran across the floor during Emma's birthday party.

Emma is having a friend over today. 

Her mom texted me this morning asking if her daughter could come for a playdate.

Six months ago, that text would have filled me with dread and shame.

Today, I said "absolutely" without a second thought.

Because my home is mine again. It's clean. It's safe. It's peaceful.

No scratching sounds at night. No droppings to clean every morning. No fear every time I open the pantry.

Just a normal, comfortable home where my family can live without fear.

I replace the Vamoose pouches every 60 days, which costs me about $30 per replacement (I buy in bundles to save money and make sure I never run out).

Compare that to the $300-400 per month I was spending on professional pest control that didn't work.

David calculated that in the first year alone, we'll save over $3,000 compared to our old exterminator contract. 

And unlike those treatments, Vamoose actually keeps working.

Why You Need To Act Now (This Isn't Just A Sales Pitch)

Here's something most people don't know: rodent invasions spike dramatically during our current season.

According to the National Pest Management Association, rodent activity increases by 600% as food sources become scarce outdoors.

We're in mid-October right now. 

Within the next 4-6 weeks, millions of mice and rats will be looking for warm places to nest.

If your home has shown any signs of rodent activity—even small signs—it's a target.

And here's the thing: 

Once rodents establish a winter nest in your home, they're incredibly difficult to remove until spring.

They breed exponentially. 

A single pair of mice can produce 2,000 offspring in just six months under ideal conditions (which your warm home provides).

Every day you wait is another day for pheromone trails to strengthen, colonies to grow, and damage to accumulate.

I waited three months before finding Vamoose. 

In that time:

• We spent $4,200 on failed solutions
• Our home sustained damage to wiring, insulation, and furniture
• My daughter developed anxiety about sleeping in her own bed
• Our dog got sick from eating a poisoned mouse
• We lost friends and suffered social humiliation

Don't make my mistakes.

If you're seeing signs of rodent activity—droppings, scratching sounds, gnawed materials, strange smells—act now while it's still manageable.

How To Get Vamoose Before The Fall Surge Hits

BugMD, the company that makes Vamoose, sells directly to consumers. 

No middlemen, no markups, no service contracts.

They also frequently run promotions on bundle packages, which is how I bought mine. 

(I learned quickly that buying in bulk is smarter—you save money and never run out when you need to replace pouches.)

Here's what you need to know:

Vamoose comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. 

If you use it as directed and don't see results, you can get a refund (minus processing and shipping costs).

BugMD is a proud US company, and these specific Vamoose pouches are made in the USA with plant-based active ingredients.

Because Vamoose often sells out during peak rodent season (October through February), I'd recommend ordering sooner rather than later. After my experience, I never want to be without it again.
