Took a few minutes to get into it today, separated the seatback from the base, and removed the upholstery from the base...SURPRISE!!!! Big smelly mouse nest with about a pound 'o mouse turds. No wonder the sheet metal bottom rusted out in a few places. Guess the little guys were using it as their own peronsonal Porta-Potty. Ain't it wonderful!!!  | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 | You probably bought their party house. Or the outhouse.
Did they come along with the seat?

I might have had a nasty surprise because I had to dig it out from between the springs with my hands... | | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 85 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 85 | Yeah i am soooo lucky that eventhough my truck was sitting ina field for 35 years it had zero mice. of course it also ahd zero floor pans but that is something different. LOL
Now the mustang. Oh my! I removed the glove door. BIG mouse nest. Removed the hub caps in the truck. BIG mouse nest w/ babies. removed the back seat. Mouse nest with mouse sitting there looking at me as if he was saying, "what chu looking at punk?" then followed by the "oh crap he has a hammer!" look and a skurry away. 2 boxes of decon and don't know if i will find any more mice. Hopefully they ate the decon and it wasn't the cat that left his/her muddy paw prints all over the car's hood and window ledge.

Options include mouse carcasses and even live critters such as 'possums. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 76 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 76 | we bought two cabs in Carlisle, PA a couple years ago. Dragged them to Connecticut , then two weeks later to Wilton NH. When my buddy pulled into the driveway there was a mouse peering out the door opening. His face looked like he had just done 70mph up route 84. curt | | |
