I've heard of using those same sheets of laundry softener, or "Bounce", to control spiders in sailboats. I haven't tried it myself, but I plan to. It would be great if it works, because nobody wants

I had heard that also and gave it a try. Rodents ate the leather seats in my Bugeye. They were putting pecan nuts in the cars as well. I removed the pecan tree, as it was a nuisance anyway, and put

I would put more trust in several doses of rodent poison strategically placed in, under, and around the car and occasionally refresh the "treats". Al Malin Tricarb __________________________________

A lot depends on where we store our cars and what the surroundings are like. Before we sold our farm I had a small unheated building in which I kept my 100 for the winter--wrapped in a breathable cov

I once stored a boat on a farm for the winter and the cows ate all the rubber fittings and handles off the trailer. We found out about it because the farmer called to say one of his cows was injured

My musings on rodents. Baited traps attract mice? Do the poisons also attract mice? We're not looking to attract them are we? And, if you poison them, then you will likely have dead mice curled up in

Well, I can't say it has not worked, as I see no damage in my Nasty 100 with Bounce sheets in it. However, I too put out some bad bait for the rodents and find a demised one every once in a while. Ot

The problem with poisons are, if you use poison, then you are putting that poison into the eco system. If the mouse isn't eaten by another animal (say a hawk or an eagle) which would also likely die,

Another thing that has been recommended to me is to put steel wool in the exhaust pipe to prevent rodents from going in and making nests. Can they really get in there? I've never seen a mouse with a
