I used this method last year @ donotchallengher's suggestion and there were no signs of mice in my car or 5th wheel come spring. Seems to work  :2thumbs:
Works ever time but the little beggers just wait until you reload or go away, I wouldn't be putting my car into a barn again cause I used to live on a farm and know from first hand experience what damage they do. Not only do they jump high but they also drop down from on high, they have a good bombing site, the Air Force tried to get theirs as accurate.   :villagers:

 Forget the cat idea, They hop up on top your rag top and piss on it.  :stomp:

I have been told that strategically placed dryer sheets will work, but I've never tried it.
