We now have mice nesting somewhere in our huge van (Nissan NV 3500).

I will extirminate them with extreme prejudice.

But...how?

- I've set traps

- I will load it up with peppermint smells

- what else?

Release snakes into the van to kill the mice, then release a mongoose or something to kill the snakes. Then you will need a hawk to kill the mongoose, and finally the hawk will either leave willingly or be unable to survive winter

I don't know why I swallowed the fly....

Perhaps you’ll die 🤷‍♂️ 🎶

That's a trap house on wheels now homie 😂😂

Irish spring works too. For the traps I find success with peanut butter. If your using the steel bar spring traps, modify the trigger point to be very light. I use live capture, so they are transported 5km away otherwise they just walk home

thanks!

I've had great success with mini marshmallows, bought in bulk se super-cheap

I work at a car dealer, we had a guy come in 3 times in a month. The rats kept chewing the exact same plug on the car every time. Good luck

A friend had this happen, evidently some wires are now coated with some 'plant-based' nonsense -- almost destroyed his car from electrical failures

Poison. The only true solution

It's under the table at our local hardware store. You have to ask for the good stuff

First thought was 'barn cat' but too many predators here and it can't live indoors (wife severely allergic)

oof

We have the same issues. We're on cat 5&6 already. This poison is great.

...safe for kids to be around? We have many, and neighbor kids here everyday too

Somewhere? Can you find/reach the spot somehow? I used a vacum cleaner with some cloth blocking the hose, then you fish them out 😄

I haven't found where, yet--probably somewhere in the ducts--but that's a genius idea...

yeah it works quite well, a diy suction cup on a stick 😅 also having something like this on hand is very helpful to pinpoint the location: ?v=1724723144&width=1920

good idea. just ordered. thank you.

cut off food supply/water if possible

What I don't want is for them to die somewhere deep inside the bowels of my wife's vehicle...as it stands, she's refusing to drive it until it's taken care of--full-on wife-on-stool-with-a-broom vibes. It's almost adorable.

if *U* cut off source they will move/i startED putting feed away from my house & cut off access to crawlspace & now they are not trying to get in {house} anymore/i didn't kill any in the process*/*

i found that parking my vehicles away from easy access helps/like in more of a clearing/rats & mice stay to cover wen out @ nite-day looking for imbibe/*

they don't want to be caught out in the open/*****

Glue traps can often work well too, just place them under furniture or somewhere a pet cant get to it. Removing a glue trap from a dog paw is hell. Bonus is that glue traps also catch other critters, insects, scorpions too.

Fire

...you mean, like, **burn the van to the ground**?

seems...extreme

already holding the wife back from this 'solution' as it is lol

🤣
