I live in the woods in Connecticut, so I get all kinds of critters looking for a home the the winter. Not many ants, though...

I usually fill up the tank with fresh gas and Stabil, put steel wool in the exhaust pipe openings to keep the mice out, put steel wool in the intake openings under the hood, buy Bounce sheets and throw a bunch inside the car and then I get boxes of mothballs at the dollar store, poke holes in the box and place it under the hood.

I also put out lots of mouse poison blocks around the garage to try to keep them at bay. I've even had to put them in the drawers of my workbench because the mice build nests everywhere they can.

Good luck,
Brian
