Mice are eating my car seats

[TWB]

Its true. I have a band of mice in my car and they ate a big hole in the back seat.

Any suggestions?

Anyone want a pet?

Anyone need a few mice for some reason?

(No, if I needed them I would have left this thread in my head).

 

[lovetoread]

Get a snake.

lol,see if you can trap them and let them out elsewhere.

You haven't realized they're boosting your car for parts little by little.

Replace your back seat with something inedible.

I wonder what they find so tasty. What have you been doing back there?

 

[patient1]

At first I was going to say don't worry, they aren't eating your car, they are making nesting material. You'll have enough mice for everyone very soon!

But it's true that mice will eat those protein saturated spots where larger animals have mated.

you should invest in a few car cats.... they are much like barn cats but they have a tendency to change the radio stations you've programed

My only experience with car cats is that they tend to bounce off the windows as if they were pinballs in a machine.

you should buckle them up...for safety's sake

Put cheese in your car. The mice will eat that instead of your seats.

Mice like peanut butter or dried sweetcorn even better.

Well, then make a cheese, peanut butter and dried sweetcorn salad and put it in there. They'll love ya for it.

I had that experience once for 6 hours on a trip. Now my cats are drugged for long trips, just enough to make them mellow and hopefully stop the loud MEOWS.

You are doing a really grand thing here.

I mean,realising that mice are people too and making sure they
have plenty to eat.

How does one claim that on their insurance?

 

[Weird Harold]

Any suggestions?

Serious answers here:

If you have a cat, let him play in the car -- even if he doesn't catch the mice, they'll move out because of the cat's scent.

If you don't have a cat (and can't borrow one for a day or so,) then a Raid Fumigator will make them stop eating the seats. Not the best option, because the dead mice will eventually start to stink and you'll have to find their little bodies.

Mouse traps?

Unless the corpses are kept moist, they'll desiccate and the smell will be minimal. Is it a convertible?

Actually, I am going to make a claim. They will pay for the damage.

And when I catch the little vandals, I am going to have them dragged off to jail so the insurance company can take get their insurance company to pay for it.

*brat*, I was never going to buy poison. That was your idea. Besides, I was not worried about marauding children, I was a bit more concerned about my own temptation.

*Hmmm. wonder what this tastes like*???

I like to put things in my mouth too much to have poison around.

Ok darlin. *crunch*.

Cars are alot moister than you might think. I had another car in which I had to have the entire dash removed and parts replaced to get rid of dead mousy smell.

It ain't pleasant!
