Editorial policy
How we make sure our guides are accurate, honest and genuinely useful.
Who we are
This guide is run by the team behind MintGuard. We sell MintGuard natural rodent repellent through the official shop at mintguard.co.uk, and we're upfront about that on every page.
Research and sources
We base our advice on trusted UK sources, including the NHS, the British Pest Control Association, the RSPCA, gov.uk and local council pest-control pages. Sources are listed at the end of each guide.
Accuracy
We only make product claims we can support: MintGuard contains no poison and no traps, needs no power, and each placement lasts around 30 to 60 days. We don't publish invented reviews, ratings or test results.
When to call a professional
Every relevant guide explains when a problem is beyond DIY, such as heavy rat activity or health risks, and recommends a qualified pest controller.
Updates and corrections
We review guides regularly and show the last-updated date. If you spot an error, contact us through the official shop and we'll correct it.
Links to our shop
Links to mintguard.co.uk are tracked so we can understand which guides help people. We don't accept payment from other brands.
