Despite being thought of as cute and cuddly throughout our collective childhoods, mice are not welcome guests in many households. It's all fun and games being an animal-loving Disney princess until you catch one of these tiny, furry beasts scurrying around in your home. Not only are they destructive, eating their way into your food storage, destroying appliances, and causing property damage, but mice are also disease vectors and can pass on terrible illnesses through direct contact with them or indirect contact with their feces or saliva. Not to mention you'll probably have bags under your eyes from all that scampering in the night keeping you awake.
Fortunately, there is a common kitchen ingredient that is guaranteed to repel mice from your home: cinnamon.
These clever critters reproduce fairly quickly, so using cinnamon is a humane way of getting rid of mice without having to resort to genocide. If you suffer from an infestation and taking the chemical route with fumigation doesn't sound so hot, then you can choose the organic option to keep the pesky rodent problem at bay — while also keeping your environment smelling absolutely delicious.
Use cinnamon in stick or oil form to ward cute critters off.
Cinnamon is a widely available kitchen condiment that not only tastes great on French toast, but also can be used to drive away pests like mice. While the spice has a pleasing aroma to us humans, the reverse is the case when it comes to those furry rodents. What makes cinnamon so potent against mice is the strength of the scent: they can't stand it. Bad news for them, great news for you.
To repel mice, you can use either fresh cinnamon or cinnamon oil. According to Hunker, you can tie together bundles of fresh cinnamon sticks in a pouch and leave them at strategic locations in the house, especially where food is kept. If you have cinnamon powder, you can also tie it up in sachets or sprinkle it around.

First, eYe looked about to see if this story was circulating among
CStonehenge scribes ...No. check.
Then eYe reminded myself of recent musings... featuring the word, NO.
$0 here is a heads up on digital currency & No more par tay...
And so it has begun. A war of world's x 10,000
Here in the big F. Complete hysteria with 2, yes two, confirmed cases locally.
Just came from the store. And the scene was unreal.
No shopping carts in the stall, every parking space taken, cars cued up in the lanes, add hard rain, add Calif. Stupidity on the self locking shopping cart, and I fled from the place... before that I offered to help an old Lady....and she of course ( remember this is Fresno ) snapped at me.
This is going to get ugly....Quickly .
Now that I go to write the blog I can't remember if my profile picture shows Bella or not but I'm going to guess the dog is in my arms because she usually is and when she isn't, she is by my side. She went to work with me every single day in the CPA firm and she sits on my desk at home.
Two days ago she was restless, throwing up and diareah. I knew a vet visit was in order the next day however her diareah and vomitting stopped yesterday but she still stayed restless. Today she finally ate something but everytime she laid down, she would pop up, spin around, try to lay down, pop up spin around, try to lay down, rinse and repeat.
I only moved to this town two months ago so I called the neighbor to ask for her vets phone number. Funny thing when the vet's office answered I recognized the name and it was the same vet I used over 40 years ago when I lived in this town. I took Bella to the vet but she miraculously got better when we got there so I was sent home. If I find blood in her stool or she continues this popping up, spinning uncomfortable gestures I will have some geriatric blood work done after all she is 14 years old.
She weighed two and a half pounds, that is SOOOO TINY. I don't ever want such a tiny dog again. I love throwing her in my purse but I don't like watching for all the predators (like birds) that want to dine on her. Especially here in FL she is truly gator bait.
I think my cooking made for one sick puppy.

Of late I have been thinking about Mr. Sly Mongoose,
He was imported into the Island in the year <1898> more or less..
His frist job was to get rid of the snakes and rats..
Needless to say Mr.Sly Mongoose was very good at his job,So much so that
there is no more snakes on the Island, and this have left mr.Sly Mongoose without work..
Anyway the last time I saw a mongoose was on the beach, I was most surprised to see a mongoose fishing,Mr.Sly was diving into the sea chating crabs and fish..
Could this be the start of an evolution of the Mongoose...
US tax payers taken for suckers again .
cash for peace never works .
