As demand for safer pest control solutions rises, Mighty Mint establishes itself as the authority in peppermint-powered pest control for today's families and pets
GURNEE, Ill., Sept. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- This rodent season, Mighty Mint, a trusted provider of plant-based pest control solutions, is reminding families that sometimes the simplest solutions are the most effective. Powered by peppermint oil, Mighty Mint repels rodents with a plant-based solution, offering peace of mind without relying on harsh chemicals or dangerous traps.
Peppermint oil has long been recognized as a plant-based pest deterrent. Its strong, refreshing scent is pleasant to people, but overwhelming to rodents and insects, disrupting their sensitive sensory systems and sending them away. Because peppermint oil affects multiple pathways in pests' nervous systems, they are far less likely to develop resistance over time, a common problem with many chemical-based solutions. Recognized as a minimum-risk pesticide ingredient, peppermint oil also leaves little to no residue behind, making it a safe option for everyday use around both families and pets when used as directed.
Mighty Mint combines the power of peppermint oil with easy-to-use products, like Rodent Repellent Spray and Mouse Repellent Pouches. The spray provides quick, targeted coverage without staining surfaces, while the pouches offer long-lasting protection with a fresh mint scent, giving households flexible options that fit their needs. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, they can be applied anywhere rodents lurk, from kitchens and basements to garages, storage areas, and even car engine compartments, providing everyday protection families can feel confident using.
Today's consumers are driving the demand for safer solutions. According to a February 2025 Pest Control Consumer Segmentation study, 55 percent of pest control consumers prefer to avoid harsh chemicals or seek environmentally friendly solutions. Safety around children and pets was cited as the number one frustration with traditional pest control, according to a Dscout survey conducted in August 2025. It is no surprise that Mighty Mint saw a 61 percent increase in repeat customers in 2024, with thousands of positive reviews highlighting its plant-based ingredients and family-friendly peace of mind.
"What sets Mighty Mint apart is our focus on peppermint oil as the foundation of safer pest control," said Caroline Creek, brand manager at Mighty Mint. "Consumers are proving that they want options that protect their homes without putting families or pets at risk, and we're proud to lead the way in making peppermint the trusted choice for rodent control."
Mighty Mint products are available at Amazon, Target and The Home Depot, as well as select retailers nationwide. For more information, visit mightymintproducts.com or follow along @MightyMintProducts on Instagram.
