Mice Prevention

[slim60]

This harness was installed last July. I don’t want to do it again until I find away to keep these damn critters out. They built a nest inside the center tube of my Tee Nee trailer. Any suggestions?

Try wadding up galvanized or brass screen and jamming in the openings where those little buggers are getting in.

Stuff laundry dryer sheets,"Bounce" or store equivalent in any open hole. For some reason the little beasts hate the stuff.

In my boats I use those Bounce Fabric softener sheets. I stuff them in and under things where the fuzzy little commies like to nest. Have not had any issues. I used to use them in classic cars as well. Added bonus, when you unwrap them in spring they smell a lot better. Try shoving some in the hollows of your trailer frames.

i gotta go and check my EZ loader for voids where the mice could get in. Thanks for the heads up!

I have also heard bars of Irish spring soap. In my storage barn I just put down a bunch of mouse poison and then restock it a couple of times during the winter.

Ditto on the Irish Spring. Always worked for me. Used to put it in the cowls of my outboards stored in the pole barn over winter and never had a problem. Also works great in travel trailers/motorhomes.

Was told once to hang the irish spring soap from my young apple trees to stop the deer from eating them. I don’t think it worked as they ate the apples anyway but boy did the deer smell nice…

Moth balls may work……. or a hungry cat!

Prepare to be boarded!

Having some fury friends around might help.
