'Very pleased with this,' they say, noting the simplicity of the application. 'The material was easy to work with, and it was nice to have the gloves and scissors included in the box.
'Not only did I seal up the pipes by the baseboard heaters, but I also stuffed the wool into gaps between the carpet and walls, under some baseboards, in gaps inside cabinets, and around water and plumbing pipes,' all of which are common spots for hidden pest harborage[...] I feel much better about keeping mice out of the house.'
A second shopper, David, dubs it 'great stuff,' adding, 'My house was built in 1960, so there are lots of little holes that I haven't had a chance to patch yet...in every hole I place steel wool in, I get no more mice.
'This stuff was well-priced, easy to use, and if they ever come back, I know exactly what I'm buying. I've also told my neighbors about it. And no, I'm not employed by the company or Amazon, I'm just ecstatic that after four years, I finally found a product that works great and doesn't break the bank.'
A third chimes, 'No mice since installation, yippee!' so take it from them – using steel wool to stop mice getting indoors really does work.
