Title: Message

From the 'live and let live' contingent, I say whatever runs 'em off without

hurting them is the method I'd go with.

 

If your storage has holes- fix them [there's that uncommon 'common sense'

again].

 

If the soap smell drives them away, what could be safer for you and the car....

and makes opening the door next spring a more pleasant experience?

 

Worst case- one of those storage bags (about $200) seals the car from

all invaders...and keeps the dust and other crap off, too.

 

Save the killing for the truly deserving.

Eddie,

What do these poison blocks say about when the little critters crawl inside a wall to pass away? Worked pest management for 20+ in the AF and a dead animal in a wall is next to impossible to locate do to the drafts moving the ODOR. This is why I said traps plus the more you catch the more 'chili con carne'.

I like the "Irish Spring" idea plus the rondents can bath.

On mice, I recently tried some square things that are green, and some that are granola colored, they are small squares, sold at Home Depot to kill mice. I had mice getting in my garage, little field mice good for maybe a taco. This stuff is unbelieveable and I wished I knew the name of it, but it killed 7 of them dead as hell. I tried the sticky glue flat things and those suck. But all the mice are dead and any others that might have considered coming in have not. Pretty powerful and impressive stuff. Go to Home Depot and check it out, about 12 squares for $5.

 

I have also put bars of Irish Spring in cars before. Works well but you still will have mice in the area like floor or rafters. Bes thting about Irish Spring is when you open your car up for spring cleaning it is strong enough for a man, but made for a woman :~X))

Ralph,

If you can stand it MothBalls work best at repelling rodents( though a nice fat snake is as good). If you are a country boy in the south then Bodark apples will do the trick. Personbally I would trap the rodents and put some of those toilet bowl cakes in the car.

Rod,
You said in your recent post that you got a new car cover for the
Gremmie. Any recommendation on what to look for in a car cover besides
fit. I don't want another winters dust on the car.

Also, I have put dryer sheets in the interior to keep the critters out.
Any other suggestions in that regard would be welcome also, as I have
some mice and ground squirrels that seem to always end up in my garage.
Ralph
