Keeping the Mice Out

[zmanrc]

What works when storing a car???
Folk lore, wives tales, who has tried what and what works???
I have heard Irish Spring Soap. Also heard Cling Free Sheets. What else???

moth balls...hard to catch the moths and pull them off though

Buy a Car Jacket!!! They are advertised in the front of Hemmings. I have them for all my cars and they work great. Thet are like a sleeping bag for cars. You open them up and drive the car on. then disconnect or remove your battery, use the omni-dry moisture bags in the trunk, inside, and under the hood. I spray wd-40 on some areas and then put on the car cover. they recommend cracking the windows slightly for ventilation. pull the bag over the car and zip it up. another "cheap" moisture prevention trick is an aluminum pan with charcaol in it. works good for absorbing any dampness. I suppose you could also throw some moth balls in the pan but the bag should keep out the mice, unless you have some with really big teeth.

Not sure what you folks do in Texas...but that rat looks pregnant

[BBIGG BLOCK 396]

She may be!Sure has an awful lot of boobs showing.I just hope she don't have the litter in the car.You should see peoples reaction at car shows when they are lookin under the hood and she is setting on top of the breather.The rat has a little sign that hangs around her neck that says RAT WITH AN ATTITUDE.When you push the remote she has a few different sayings,some are not so nice and I have to be careful not to let some people and little children hear!They really get a kick out of it.Thanks for posting the picture for me.If I would spend more time learning about this computer than goofing off like I do I would be able to post somethings myself. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
