Mice problems!!!!
 
Well I took my car for a ride today, and I noticed little sunflower seeds along the carpet on the passenger side, I open the door, and theres more running from the front of the car to the back.....What can I do to prevent this from continuing, Obviously, I dont want the little bastard dying in my car somewhere. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Find where it got in, seal it, then leave traps...

when i pulled the center console in my car they had made a nest in the back under the storage bin. also my car had the 5th speaker (aka bose system and there was a nest in there as well.) good luck i hear that dryer sheets keep them away and they smell good but i have not personal used them.

mouse trap with peanut butter put a few in the car/around the car and wait a couple days.

Always worked for me and my dad when weve had mice problems

i left my cooler where it could get into it and left 3" of water worked fine. lol

do you park the car in a garage?

Mouse trap until he's caught, and afterwards definitely dryer sheets man. i'm partial to bounce myself. After he's out, check all the body drain plugs to see if any have popped out or been removed as well as firewall plugs that might have been compromised for them to sneak in there. You'd be suprised how little of a hole they actually need to get in there.

i would put a few traps outside the car, i wouldn't want a mouse to get snapped in half on my carpet. Then i would put moth balls or actually dryer sheets in my car. Mice don't like the smell of them. I also heard that they really don't like the smell of mint. I store my car in a barn and i have never experienced any mice problems because i put dryer sheets in it and it does the trick.

If your snapping mice in half you need to use the next size down trap lol

KB93z28 06-17-2012 04:21 AM

Yeah, my car sits in a garage that is 1 year old lol literally brand new, but im gonna set two traps on my back carpets, and then a few around the garage, Ill get the bastard yet. haha

BigMac76 06-17-2012 04:02 PM

The disc ones don't make a mess :D

I had one get into my trunk somewhere along the way on my trip, saw it scurry away once as I opened the trunk. Put traps in the trunk with peanut butter and pulled all the food out every night for about a week, no sign of it or smell of dead mouse. After this long I think it must have gotten out.

I had a mouse problem last year. One hitchhiked a ride all the way to the fort devens autox with me and hopped out
