Well, the wife and I took a chance an lost cold and wet. We went down to Watkins Glen this week end for our 31st anniversary. Left friday and ended up in Cooperstown for dinner. Saturday got up and continued to Watkins Glen with a stop at a Sixmile Creek Winery for food and wine tasting. By the time we got down to the Glen it had decided to get Sh$$$$ty out. We decided to find indoor events. Found the International Motor Racing Research Center celebrating the 100th birthday of Bill Miliken. For a 100 the man looks great. They had a special fund raiser at the local theater Saturday night showing "Grand Prix" with James Garner 1966 film. Great film found my self leaning into the turns during the race scenes. Ended the day a a great B&B outside Watkins Glenn for the night. Sunday on the way home 5 wineries and a Distillery. I stopped after 2 Colleen didn't so she had a nice little nap on the way home. All in all a great trip just to cold and wet to put the top down. This is my first S and I plan on enjoying the He77 out of it.
What distillery, and what vineyards???

I just littered my garage with traps in the late fall when I knew they were moving in.
I don't mind the poison idea, but Sarah would flip if she found a dead mouse somewhere.
Or, even worse, the mouse expires somewhere in between the walls of the house. Yuck!

Cleaned the intake filter yesterday. Noticed some mouse fur on the edge of it.
At least the lil bastards didn't chew on it.

Well, that's why I posted THIS POISON...
These solid block are nailed down, the rodents eat it on the spot because they cannot carry it, the nail, and the wood off
You WILL NEVER find unused poison laying around if you use the right kind of stuff
I too use the sonic things, but I do question their effectiveness
Mothballs is for old people, and smells like old people
I have moved forward into the 21st century and use peppermint oil, my car smells nice in the spring, not like old people...

I've been told that dryer sheets work to keep rodents away. And the car won't smell like old people in the spring.

Did you meet Mooto from Ohio?? I am ashamed to say I don't remember his car color - I met about 40 people on my Ohio trip in 2008... he's a young thin average height guy, married, his wife has an S also I think...
