I store a 911 over the winter in a barn in Upstate New York, and I can tell you fer shur that none of the folk remedies work--Bounce sheets, mothballs, cat****, I've even tried expensive sachets of stuff that's sold to farmers to put in their tractor cabs over the winter. It's all useless if you truly have mice, and I don't mean a suburban critter or two .

The only thing I've found, which is what I use now, is a zippered, impermeable car bag that you drive the car into, throw in eight industrial-strength bags of dessicant and zip it up. Works perfectly.

Now I know that posters will tell me that a loop of deer piss around the car or various other woo-woo measures work fine, but if so, they don't know mice like I know mice. And please, don't tell me cats. I have cats. No cat can eat 6,000 mice, which is what I am guessing my barn holds.
