Yes, it is. But since peppermint oil is volatile - meaning it evaporates (quicker in warmer weather) you do have to replenish it at least every couple weeks. Hopefully, the squirrels would lose interest during those couple weeks, but they may come back. If you are putting it on a bird feeder, that will work since birds do not have a sense of smell, but squirrels do. Keep in mind, squirrels will NEVER lose interest in the bird feeder, so some other solution like a cone on the bird feeder post would work better. If you want to keep them out of your attic, soak something, like a small rag or cotton ball, with the peppermint oil and stick it where you think the squirrels are getting in.
