- Nibbles in the upolstery are the least of your concerns with mice.
- They have the bad habit of building nests in your heater/ac air
- passages, and when you fire the car up for the first time after
- many months you are hit by the intolerable stench of aged mouse
- droppings and possibly dead decomposing mouse carcasses.
-
- To fix the problem you are usually stuck dismatling the dash and
- scrubbing out all the heater/ac ducts very thouroughly...
