Mice, Rats, Beavers, Marmots. Snakes, Cats. Rant / Questions
This story just made my day! Thanks. I had my '98 Ram down over winter while I was slowly rebuilding the transmission. I finally got everything ready to start the re-install and noticed when I pulled the hood up that they reknitted the sound-deadening blanket on the underside of the hood into a mouse hotel for the neighborhood brood. Luckily, they didn't go inside the cab. That was totally off the ground for the entire winter, so the 2+' climb up the jack stands didn't seem to ward them off like I figured it would. I've always heard mothballs would keep them out. They seem to work good in the pop up camper we have. I filled a plastic butter tub with them and just sat them inside the camper when we button it up every year. I guess it's the smell they don't like, so it's not like you have to spread them out all over the place, just as long as they're in the main airspace of the cab or whatever you're trying to keep them out of...
