Sounds like a nice weekend! I encourage Tom to drink all he wants on our trips - then I can drive how I want and not worry about him going on me

2010/11 was my 5th winter of doing that. Have never had a problem, in a garage or outside with the cover.

Traps are good, I still use them because I honestly question the effectiveness of the sonic things
The great thing about the bait I posted, it forces them to go looking for water, when they find the water they die
And believe me, if the found source of water is between my walls, I got worse problems than mice

Only Cone_Mark's car smells like old people, mine smell like Peppermint Oil

Works awesome, a few drops on cotton balls laid on tinfoil around the interior and no rodents, just a nice smell
This is not simple Pepperming Extract used for cooking, this stuff is on the edge of toxic
Should you get any on your hands you need to wash, right away

In addition to a slightly revised front fascia complete with LED running lamps, the funky hatch will receive a number of powertrain enhancements for the 2012 model year.
