Default Mice Problem

Not sure where else to post this;
Mice keep getting in to our vette and are gnawing the interior. Other than a cover, and traps; any advise as to what can be done?

If you are not driving it, put if on jack stands and then put moth balls around them

I've been out here in the sticks for over 10 years now. I was over-run the first couple seasons, but that all ended with "One Bite", a rat and mouse bait recommended to me by a feed store operator. I place it around the periphery of the garage, and a piece under the seats of the Vettes just in case. Bounce dryer sheets in the cabin and under the hood seem to do the job pretty well.

PM me with your address, and I'll send you some One Bite. If the car is enclosed, it's 10x easier to deal with the little bastards. But, even in the open, they can be dealt with. It just takes more vigilance.

Then I'd need a dog to get rid of the cat, and then ... almost rather have mice than a danged ol cat!
