It's a myth.  My mother tried that in the country, they ignored them.
They're MOTH balls not MOUSE balls.  ;)

Also, save your money on those ultrasonic fraud devices. They don't work,
and the theory behind them is ludicrous. My Father tried that one, found
mouse droppings ON THE DEVICES! I think they attract mice.

Notice how one ultra sonic fraudulator can eliminate "mice, rats, roaches,
ants, etc".  BTW, Consumer's Reports tested them several years ago and
proclaimed them useless too.

PS if you can't get rid of 'em name 'em.
