Only way I know is to trap them. No repellent I know of. If there was, I could not apply it without a chemical license.

Lead pushed through a tube travelng at about 1200 fps does a great job of repelling them.

Let her buy it and her apply it. Otherwise (unless you have a pesticide applicators license) you will be in violation of state law.

Illinois wildlife permits allow NO use of poisons or chemicals. Not worth getting a fine.
