It’s that time of year when rodents like to find warm places, so we get asked “How do you keep mice and other rodents out of your vehicle? ” Rodents of all sizes can cause a lot of damage once they get inside your engine compartment, or even worse in side your vehicle. They chew on wires, make nests, and can just make a stinky mess. If you have a vehicle that you are not using often, and can store with the hood up, that is best, as the rodents are looking for a dark/warm place to nest. If that is not possible, do not store pet food in close range, try to seal all of the entrances, put Pine Sol, peppermint oil, or other “smelling” substance in the vehicle, what smells good to us, does not smell good to rodents. Put traps in the vehicle. Open the hood every few days, to check things out. If you find that you do have a rodent issue, give us a call for an appointment, will be happy to help you repair whatever they have damaged.
