They hate cloves, so scater some cloves or dap around oil of cloves and they will go.

AlistairSim · 16/05/2009 16:50

scater?

Scatter!

Alistair- is that true- you might just have saved my sanity- we are infested with the buggers.....dp (Italian mamma's boy with Stepford wife delusions) sniffs and mutters about dusting more often at me.....am going to buy cloves and put them all round my skirting boards which is where the buggers scuttle out from....

It really does work!

They turn their little silver noses up at it and run away, as long as you keep putting down fresh ones, they stay away.
