Just a general safety question. Ive got a critter nation cage with some premade felt covers for the pans. One of my rats simply will not stop chewing holes through the corners and edges of the bottom most cover (i think she thinks she can chew her way out).
I had read that rats hate mint. Would it be safe (and effective) to spray the corners where she normally chews with Mint mouth spray to keep her from doing chewing holes?
Ive got tons of toys and chewables in the cage for her, plenty of materials for nesting habbits and sleeping, and she gets a decent amount of time every day out of the cage to roam and play. Im just looking for a way to make the covers last longer than a week. Gets kinda expensive having to replace them so often.
Thanks
