kaz98gt Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I took a look under the hood the other day, and saw an acorn. I though to myself, no big deal, must've slipped in there somehow. I took a look the next day, and there were 3, plus a pile of mouse s**t on top of the valve covers. It reeks, and I'm pissed as hell. I'm worried that one of them is going to chew through a wire or something and run my car into the ground...I know there are so many different things out there to keep the stupid things out of the engine bay, but who has a way that works? I don't have a spot in the garage, and I don't want to put it off for any longer before something bad happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz98gt Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 the moth balls are poisonous though...i'd have to take them out every time I go for a drive though, right? I could get a cat over here...once they're stuck to the adhesive, the cat will do the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worknlikeadog Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Tape a box of moth balls under the hood with holes in it I did it once it seemed to work great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trbulnt Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Instead of moth balls you can use dryer sheets. IF you don't know what a dryer sheet is, its the little white fabric softener sheet you throw into the dryer with your clothers so they come out not wrinkled and smelling good. I have used them while storing my cars over winter and have had zero issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worknlikeadog Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 oh yeah I've heard of that. They are also great to ward off gnats in the summer just put it under your hat. WORKS GREAT and makes your hair smell good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
