Its that time of year again!!

For mice!!

not on my Carrera sitting in my garage waiting to have its fuel injectors installed after but my daily driver!

I went to check the oil on my BMW 330 and under the plastic engine cover I found a mouse nest including a few eaten nuts on top of the engine!!

I dont live in the woods by any means(20 miles outside of Boston) but still get field mice in my basement and shed once it gets cold. But I have never found them in a car I leave outside and drive everyday.

I use the traps, and moth balls for the 911 but how the hell are you supposed to keep them out of a daily driver?!?!?

You obviously didn't see what I found in my oil cooler the other day:







I suspect the car will run considerably cooler now.

:\ Mice like peanut butter. Put some in one of those housed traps so you don't get the stuff everywhere.

I was at a DE event last year standing around with a couple of buddies in the paddock when a mouse dropped out of the front of my car and took off running. I guess he didn't enjoy the track g's. Found a little nest in the smuggler's box.
