SOLID ADVICE, good post Zedbyers!

Dam mice get into cars that are just Stored overnight D'ooh. Had mice eat wires (oxygen sensor wires) and make nests in cars just sitting for a few days! People put Mint in the Cabin Air filter things to keep the mice out. Mint Tea bags are easiest, can't smell much in the car. I have the same problem with my lawn tractor and my larger front end loader/back hoe tractor. It's a pain. Dam rodents.
