Thanks Make sure theres no open holes into the car from the outside...that's really the only way aside from catching/killing/poisoning them. _________________ 2012 Camaro 2SS/RS - LS3/TR6060: BTR Cam, Long Tubes, 3" Catback, UDP, CAI Intake, Air Scoop, 3.91 Gears, Poly Diff Bushings, Toe Arms, Poly Subframe, Poly Radius-Rod bushings, ZL1 Suede Shifter, ZL1 Mounts, Arun Tuned - 475rwhp 443rwtq 11.97 @ 116 w/ 1.85 60' Listen To Song Of My People! |

Will "fabric softener" sheets work on Mice? Thought I read it somewhere. _________________ Just rolling with the dog pound... |

We tried the fabric softener sheet and they chewed it up and made a bed out of it.
Last winter they destroyed the headliner in our Monte Carlo. Took the insulation from the firewall and stuffed it into the headliner. We use this stuff that you get from TSC. It comes in green blocks in a bucket. It's a poison so don't put it anywhere where kids or pets will be. _________________ 1970 Camaro 1970 Monte Carlo 1979 Chev Blazer 2wd 1982 GMC Jimmy K5 2wd 1990 Blazer K5 4wd 2012 Silverado |

Got a friend on a farm that lays sticky mouse trap sheets around the tires and chilli powder under the car...it's a different approach but he's had no mice in the car for several years.

Hey Bill, use lots of moth balls. Not only good for the moths. I put them all around and in the engine bay.
