Brilio.net - The appearance of mice often makes householders panic. Not to mention, mice often damage household furniture, make food in the kitchen a mess, and even make the floor of the house dirty.

Because these rodents are difficult to eradicate , many people make or buy mouse traps. On the other hand, there are also those who choose to put camphor in corners of the house that are often visited by mice. Camphor is known to attract mice to eat it, so that soon the mice will die.

However, there are times when camphor is still not effective enough to get rid of mice. If you experience this, don't worry just yet because there is still one more trick from YouTube account user Sendi Ramdani. After all, you can practice this trick using two kitchen ingredients, you know.

An effective way to get rid of mice only relies on 2 kitchen ingredients.

Before getting into the trick, you have to prepare a bowl first to mix the ingredients. Then, put 1 tablespoon of ground coffee into the bowl. Yup, this coffee is one of the main kitchen ingredients for practicing this trick to repel mice.

"We use coffee without sugar, aka pure coffee," emphasized YouTube account user Sendi Ramdani, quoted by BrilioFood on Sunday (19/5).

After that, mix the coffee with a little toothpaste. Reporting from nativepestmanagement.com, toothpaste is known to be toxic to mice, so these animals will run away and die after eating this concoction later.

It doesn't stop there, you also need to add one more kitchen ingredient, namely a little salt to the mixture. Dissolve this mixture first with a little water, then stir until smooth.

Next, transfer this rat repellent mixture into a used plastic bottle. Then, add more water until it is half the bottle.

Make a hole in the top of the plastic bottle cap containing this mixture. You can make a hole in it with the help of solder or a heated iron nail. If so, immediately sprinkle the mixture into areas of the house that are often visited by mice.

"We can also use this concoction not only to get rid of house mice, yes. We can also use garden mice, field mice and sewer mice," said the netizen familiarly known as Sendi.

How to store ground coffee.

Coffee is often used as a daily drink at home. However, if you don't store it properly, your coffee stock at home might clump, you know. To store coffee so it doesn't clump, there are several tips you can follow.

1. Store in a dry place.

Make sure coffee is stored in a dry place. Humidity is the main cause of coffee clumping, so avoid damp or wet places.

2. Use a tightly closed container.

Store coffee in an airtight container. A container with a tight lid will prevent air and moisture from entering, keeping the coffee dry and fresh.

3. Keep away from heat and light sources.

Store coffee in a cool, dark place. Heat and light can speed up the oxidation process and damage the quality of the coffee.

4. Avoid contact with air.

Every time you open a coffee container, try to close it tightly as quickly as possible. Reducing exposure to air will help keep the humidity in the container low.

5. Use a dryer.

You can add moisture absorbing materials such as silica gel to the coffee container. Make sure the material is safe and does not come into direct contact with coffee.

6. Buy in small quantities.

Buying coffee in smaller quantities frequently can help maintain its freshness, rather than buying large quantities that take a long time to finish.

By following these steps, you can keep your coffee fresh and free of lumps.
