Car Forum / Porsche / Porshe 944 / January 2008Darn Mouses
Just opened my hood - full of an insulation nest under the intake manifold...Darn mouses...At least they didn't touch the spark wires or vacuum hoses. I'm putting down a lot of poison today...and sprayed the wires with silicone! In the coldest and meanest night in Palenville up past Woodstock, NY - the winds were howling through the mountains - and the 944 started in the middle of the night and ran like a champ! Happy New Year someone said Irish Spring soap bars will work as good as but without the odor of mothballs.  Signaturelater, dave (One out of many daves) Just opened my hood - full of an insulation nest under the intake manifold...Darn mouses...At least they didn't touch the spark wires or vacuum hoses. I'm putting down a lot of poison today...and sprayed the wires with silicone! In the coldest and meanest night in Palenville up past Woodstock, NY - the winds were howling through the mountains - and the 944 started in the middle of the night and ran like a champ! Happy New Year when a friend got an 84 that had sat for several years, we pulled about a cubic yard of snail shells out of the engine, and drained a cup of mouse urine from the air cleaner (they were living inside the air cleaner) - Bleah! > Just opened my hood - full of an insulation nest under the intake > manifold...Darn mouses...At least they didn't touch the spark wires or [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Happy New Year SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com I've heard of Irish Spring soap - but wouldn't that make the 944 smell like an Irish Spring? And ruin the leather smell? The mouses lived in my air filter about 3 times - the little rat b-stards. With leaves or insulation or towels as blankets too. From now on - POISON hard bait will be constantly supplied until there are no more mouses in a 1/4 mile radius, I mean - I want to get a new Vette with no mouses. Hmmmm dead rotting mouse smell along with their dead bodies OR Irish Spring and leather Hard choice! lol A cat might be a better choice! ;-) I've heard of Irish Spring soap - but wouldn't that make the 944 smell like an Irish Spring?

From now on - POISON hard bait will be constantly supplied until there are no more mouses in a 1/4 mile radius, I mean - I want to get a new Vette with no mouses. new research suggets that cats are very effective at repelling mice and rats consider a cat - much more fun than poison, and equally devastating on the mice > I've heard of Irish Spring soap - but wouldn't that make the 944 smell > like an Irish Spring?

SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com Cats are cute and all, and if I had a cat - boy it would have fun in my yard...but alas, I am allergic to the beasts. Does that IRISH SPRING stuff really work? Where would i put it? All around inside my garage? I bet the mouse eat the stuff and love it!

SignaturePosted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com I think that fox urine is sold, so maybe that could do the trick. NOW that is if YOU don't mind the odors? lol Irish Spring is cheap to try and easy to find. Should smell nice too, even if you place it in the engine compartment in different spots. ;-) if you are alergic to cats, get some cat urine and spritz a little on the ground near where you park. that ought to do the trick as well - maybe pet stores sell simulated cat urine, but I'll bet you can get some from a live cat easily enough "jolieoli" <aol@aol.com> wrote in message news:13olvhsffnsdfde@corp.supernews.com... > Cats are cute and all, and if I had a cat - boy it would have fun in my > yard...but alas, I am allergic to the beasts. > Does that IRISH SPRING stuff really work? > > Where would i put it?

OK - I tried to get some urine from a live cat - and now the cat follows me wherever I go...
