Repelling Mice with Lavender

Hi there,,I have read that Mice do not like lavender and that it is a good repellent for them. Has anyone tried this. I am trying to grow salad greens in my greenhouse and the mice are chewing it up just after the seeds germinate. It is really pissing me off !!!. I am trying to save money !!!...and grow my own salad stuff, but the mice are ruining it. I don't want to use poison, because I have free range chickens that would probably end up eating it. Today I cut a bunch of lavender out of my garden and spread it around the salad greens bed, so I guess I will find out if it really works. Uuugh, I have 4 cats that are outside killing mice every day, all day long,,but apparently there are ALOT of mice on the property.
