Mice 1 - TVR 0 1st Leg!!

[doddze]

Hunting for a CD today I looked in the TVR glove box


looks cosy doesn't it


how did they get in I wonder

through the switch panel air vents by eating them



time for revenge




all the exits are sealed as I have unclipped the air vent hoses and blocked the ends




more news to follow when I've killed the little

Fortunately all the wiring is ok!!

You can't kill it! That's Hector the wiring inspector - he's studied for years to do that - it's not his fault that you shut the glove box on him...

You said you had a nasty little squeek that you couldn`t trace

It cannot be Hector. I heard he was busy sorting out a difficult open circuit and was unaware of Pickles the cat by his side. Pickles did not know of Hector's skills and reviewed him as calories and carbo-hydrates only.... he is no more.
However it could be Harold, Hector's cousin from Shepherd's Bush. Harold is no where near as good as Hector, and always leaves a mess. He uses a large shire horse and cart for transport so look out for hoof marks on the seats. You could try chocolate or even carrots in the trap, if it is Harold.

Anyway I,m off to have another glass of amber liquid - it really must be the time of year...pressure of work..... lack of sunshine... etc etc

Oh!.....nasty.

Probably no need for pictures of the second leg!

[tvrjohn]

had this problem with my Griff, ate my mints !
Chocolate is much better than cheese

[ketvrin]

Hells teeth ! I had better go and put bungs in the ends of my air intakes !!!

I was told that to get rid of mice you have to put broken glass in their holes... problem is keeping them still while you do it ! wriggly little buggers...

[Podie]

You won't catch a mouse with cheese...

what about dressing up a little toy mouse, you know dress it up a bit, stockings, basque ect, he`s bound to prefer that to your wiring
then when he`s giving it a good seeing too.....

You could probably take one out of the footwell and replace the chewed one on the dash... doesnt cure your problem but solves the visuals...

Sorry to hear of your mouse issue, the little b***ards, looks a bit of a mess hope its not too difficult to fix!

Might be time to upgrade to the ally ones, like mine, I would like to see the little blighters eat through the metal....

Heres a pic of mine to refresh your memeory.

the cheese has been coverd in nutella for two days and not a nibble..... saying that I took the S out on saturday and gave it a pretty fast run (got the car back with the new clutch) so maybe the little sod got blown away then!!!! Didn't think of the ones in the footwells.. will swap them over and then see what I can geto replace those ones as the are out of sight... need to change both as they ate both!!!
