Why don't my Fresh Cab pouches have a strong smell?
Posted on Friday, January 20, 2012
I recently recommended Fresh Cab rodent repellent to one of my good friends Martha the Mouse Detectivewho had a mouse infestation in her garage.  She had heard of it before but just didn't get around to fixing the problem until she found a mouse nest under the hood of her most prized possession, a 1966 Chevy Chevelle!  That would make anybody jump on their rodent problem in a quick manner!  
 
The other day she called me to say that she didn't think the repellent was working.  She told me that it didn't have a very strong smell, and she still saw mice running around the garage.  Plus, she was still finding droppings in the car.  I reassured her that she had just set the product out a couple days ago and to give it time.  I also gave her some tips on where to place Fresh Cab, like in and around the infested area/s and all the openings that mice could use to get in and out of the garage.  
 
I pointed out to her that one box of Fresh Cab, which contains 4 pouches, covers 32 square feet of floor space alone, so she would need to use more than one box for a large garage.  She asked if I would stop over to make sure that she had enough pouches and had placed them in the right places. I agreed to make the visit.
 
When I opened the side door to the garage, I waited for the familiar, refreshing and outdoorsy smell of Fresh Cab to hit me, but it didn't.  In fact, I couldn't smell it at all.  I noticed right away that my friend had not taken the plastic wrap off the individual pouches.  It is important that the outer plastic is removed right before you place the pouch for the product to work.  That way the smell will be strong and offensive to the rodents you are trying to get rid of.  If you don't remove the outer plastic around the pouches the smell will be very weak and since this product works because of its natural smell, it is an important step to remove the wrap, exposing the pouch.  
 
My friend and I still enjoy a good laugh about this, but you can bet she will not forget this step again!
