Default mice...

I've read the threads about Bounce dryer sheets and mice, but couldn't find anything that said where you put the dryer sheets. On the floor of the car? On the floor of the garage? Under the hood? I'm gonna use traps too, around the perimeter of the car, because I've found droppings on the maniford covers. Thanks!

Default mice & cheeze

Home depot has for 15 dollars units you plug into your garage outletsThey are made by BLACK & Decker.I have no mice now. I sell them to my customers on my electrical contracting route. Moth ***** work but only under hood. There is also bait but i dont like any animal to suffer that way by poising. No food left in car at night will help to. SAVE THE WAVE!

Default Rat bait = No suffering.

The baits contain a blood thinning agent - similar to Warfarin or Coumadin. The stinking rat goes off and literally bleeds internally until it expires. Quite painless and much better than he deserves. I don't like the baits because I want to see the little fellow dead. That way I know he hasn't crawled inside the car or someplace else to stink up the joint. Rodents are nasty and do all grades of damage. I think the sticky traps work great. Add a little peanut butter and the nasty b&$ta%d can't resist.
