Stupid mouse
Turned the blower on for the heater and I thought the bearings were shot.
Little creep was throwing his peanut shells into the squirrel cage. |

LOL,
The last time I checked my engine air cleaner I found acorns ( below and outside the filter thankfully. We regularly use those sticky traps in all cars here in the country... and catch them regularly... wish I knew where they were entering the vehicle (S).... not just an MB problem...Ford Pickup, Lincoln, Subaru, they all have ' mouse entry holes' built in I guess. |

yep, big cat for the mice, and a terrier if they are rats. Jack Russels will shred the little buggers. They are like rat terminators, they are relentless.

UH... big cat.... can you define BIG ? The little ones want to spray their ID all over things... it will take off the paint from a tool cabinet.... not to mention giving the shop/car a very distinctive odor...
I am sticking (pun) with the glue traps... |

Nah, you just have to get them fixed just before puburty. I have a 13 yr old cat that has never sprayed, but I guess you cant control the neighbors cats. stick with the Jack Russel if you have a barn

A couple of weeks ago I popped the hood on my 300D and found a mouse nest smack dab on top of the valve cover. It looked to be made out of the gray foam material that they use in the seats or behind the dash. I had also found droppings inside the car on the console, seats and floor. That night I set an old fashioned trap with peanut butter bait. The next morning I had a dead mouse in the trap and haven't had any droppings in the car since.

Wax the car in the spring for the bird droppings, bug bomb spiders in the car in the summer, wash raccoon prints off the trunk in the fall and now I need mouse traps for the winter.
