Thanks Mary. I'm told peppermint oil is a deterrent for rodents but I know that IS not safe for cats. so I figured I'd do the next best thing and have a few peppermint plants in the garden. Worth a try!

Diddn't know there was a list.  I have my own list and Peppermint IS SAFE.

I have it as a Word doc so if you let me have your email I will email it to you.

I've pasted it here and the left is SAFE and the right is TOXIC
