This month i've been killing mice!
Turbo Mini Forums

Earlier this month I popped the bonnet to have a look at the room I have for the intercooler, and to my shock, a small brown mouse popped out of the bulk head , sat on the tower bolt, winked at me, then disappered up by the bonnet hinge!!!!

Almost shacking with anger and fear, of what the little bugger has been doing to my car (nice comfy nest in my seats, eating wires) I proceeded to strip the seats, carpet, boot and as much of the dash as I could get off out the car. With no luck, I placed a mouse trap where I first spotted him, with cranberry and Stilton cheese, I sat in the car trying to locate where he was hiding.

Hearing the little bugger scurrying around, BANG, jumped out the car to see if I got him, to my delight, he couldn't resist the lovely cranberry and Stilton, he was dead!!!!

This week, I notice some chewed cardboard, so taking no chances I placed rat poison down and put the trap back, in case some of his friends were moving in. The next day all the poison gone and I've caught another bloody mouse on the bulk head.

I've put fresh poison down every day in my garage and something keeps covering it with leaves, traps back in the car, but no more so far!!!!! :(


p.s im sorry to upset any animal lovers!

You evil, evil bastard

I'll swap your mice for the Fooooking great spiders that have taken up residence in my garage any day!

Mice are fine, if they are outside, it's all part of nature...

My cat on the other hand, keeps bringing them in to play with...... 9 times out of 10 alive as she just wants to chase them around the room. And I then have to catch them and return them to the field behind....

If you live somewhere (like rural) where they exist, forget it.... just make the car mouse proof - they can't get in without a hole somewhere.... (unless you gave them a key...)

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

I've been mainly shooting pigeons. At work it is a huge building with open doorways. There are literally hundreds of the buggers up on the lighting gantries. Last Sunday me and a colleague shot over 100 of the fuckers, no joke.

nothing wrong with knocking off a few sky rats

you would have been better with traps than poinson, youll find your worspace stinkign of dead rat shortly.. enjoy!

A RAT got under the bonnet of my mums Suzuki in the garage and chewed through the wiring loom in the engine bay, stopped the car from starting, had to be recovered to a Suzuki dealer to get the loom repaired.

ive been checking it every day, my friends mini caught fire and burnt through the brake pipe from a short from the wiring loom. And he was driving it!!!!

Our west highland white killed a healthy pheasant earlier today. That was quite impressive considering everyone I know comments on how sweet she is!
