Mouse!!!!

Not happy! :evil:

Just emptying out the boot of my mk1 and we discover mouse droppings inside the car. Closer inspection shows we have a mouse somewhere in the garage.

Worse still, said mouse has nibbled through the insulation under the dash, under both front seats, attacked one of the rear seatbelts and the boot liner. Not too obvious, but extremely annoying. I can't figure out how the mouse got into the car either,  :scratch: , I'm guessing through the foot vents….

I've sent the wife to B&Q for some mousetraps, hopefully catch the blighter. Price you pay for living in the countryside I guess. :cry:

Cheers,

Drew.

…obviously a mouse with taste !  
…does he want to be the Club mascot ?????

He'll be mounted with an unfeasibly large stick up his backside if he is.  

Cheers,

Drew.

Are you going for the <ahem> humane type traps, ot the ones that actually work  :wink: ?

If the latter then forget cheeses - tuna mayonnaise paste in there will lure them in for sure. We had a broken drain cover in our back garden in our last house during the summer and a rat managed to get into the kitchen 8O . Had to go to Homebase and ask if they had any "real" moustraps… they were hidden away at the back of the store on a shelf with the heavy duty stuff.

Set the trap with tuna mayo paste and 10 mins later <snap>, got the sucker….. horrible creatures. Mouse are not as bad, but man they move fast. Trap is the only way to get them for sure, or a cat……

I've got two cats. I think I'm going to fire them! In breach of their contracts they are! One is old and fat and the other is thin and lazy….

Sounds a bit Mickey Mouse to me, but then again mice do like golf.

argghhhh….. I had mouse in my old garage. They little blighers jewed the washer bottle to get to the water in it, then dropped sh1t all over the carpet under the seats, and peed on the paintwork at the bottom of the front screen. I was fuming - know how you feel Drew !!.

A year later (after I had moved house and killed the blighters) when I went to check the spare tyre, find the little blighters had been usig the tyre well as a food storage area !! And also found out where all the poison had gone to.

Brother works as a "Terminator" and says taht a mouse onloy needs a hole the size of a bic pen lid hole to get in, so that could mean any damn hole in the Mk1.

Catch 'em, and torture the little horrors - their worse than kids    

They drank the window washer fluid and survived?

Yep, obviously they have a drink problem  

or are immune to windscreen washer fluid ?!?!?!?!?!?!?


SCARY !!!!

That's just what I need, BORG mice….

I've got this horrible thought that I've got that mouse from that 'mouse hunt' film and all I'll be left with in a few weeks is a pile of rubble and a crumpled bit of metal where my house and my Golf once stood!

Cheers,

Drew.
