Mint is touted as a mosquito repellent plant and I have heard some people also say it will repel rodents!
In some research I found that using Mint oil in a spray it can be used to control spiders.. Mint plants certainly could work.
Above all else mint plants smell wonderful in the garden!
Here is a link about mint plants.
