Smells like Christmas time and nursing home.
Bought to keep mice out of attic. Ran it through a diffuser uncut... don't do that. My whole house smelled like a nursing home met a vapor rub convention and a candy cane shop in a tornado.
The mice soon lost all sense of smell and started bathing in it. You would be asleep, wake up smelling a candy cane fart and hear a scurry.
So I did the humane thing and poisoned the mice instead.
Now I use the oil in the bathroom at work, it makes the guys think their grandma is around and they wash their hands more and swear less. I gave the diffuser and a lot of the peppermint to some kids that live in a van down by the river to cover up smoke odors, their van must burn oil or something.
