Oh, by the way. Had a couple mice in my garage the last few years chewing up stuff, etc. Finally got a couple mouse traps I haven't got around to setting out yet and the other day blowing leaves out of my garage..... pow, a couple dead mice blew out. Must have drank a little anit-freeze spilled on the floor from winterizing my jet-ski. See, that anti-freeze isn't so bad after-all............

I will add to the "anti-freeze aint so bad" comment...winterized my boat for the first time this year. Poured anti freeze down every hose and down the manifold. Nothing gave me piece of mind like seeing that pink stuff drain out.

Don't laugh to hard folks but several years ago I had a problem with mice in my garage. I bought a couple of the plug-0n deals at a local home store and there were no more mice except for one that tried to take a bath in my car wash bucket. Got in and couldn't get out. I've since moved to a new place with a farm field across the way and again, with two repellers in the three stall garage I have never seen a mouse and my doors are open alot.

Thank you very much! I got blasted for that same exact sentiment a few threads ago. :p

On the mouse issue, I have a big fat cat - if I hear anything scurrying around in the garage, I put him in there for the night & whatever it was - it's no longer a problem in the am.
