Been away on holiday for a week,
jumped in the Cerb to find something has been eating my softmints !

Must be a mouse, ikle bite marks on wrapper and small
pieces surrounding the area.

So where did it get in ?

Could be a Borrower?

Remedy - Just lock your's/next door neighbours *cat in the car overnight.


* Important note - Cats do no like softmints.

If its anything like the rodent that eats my sweets he's already sussed he gets in by pressing the button under the mirror.
Unfortunately the local council pest control seem unwilling to deal with a 3 year old boy

Couple of winters ago I had a visitor make its nest in the glovebox of my old Griff (laid up for the winter..the car not the mouse). Bd thing chewed every bit of wiring it could find, cost me a packet to repair.

Get the poison down ASAP

Pest control man visited as we have "pests", and put boxes down in the garage after telling me a series of horror stories of prides & joy being eaten alive, looms catching fire etc.

I always found my TVR (or is it just me !?) to be a trap for those felines that will sort your mouse issue.

Go out for a fast blast with some sharp corners - maybe the little blighter will fall out of its hiding place..

I once had a visitor in the form of a massive black spider - no idea how it got in, but it dissappeared never to be seen again

Cerbs in Offord Motors having the engine rebuilt (cams, cam gear, heads off, etc, etc, etc ££££££££) and in passing they told me that they had cleared the nest of whatever had been living in the V out of the engine! It appeared to be old and probably dates back to the previous owners winter storage. Aparently it's keeping Ben in the workshop amused.
