Rat or Mouse in my Truck

I don’t really like her feeding squirrels but she’s got a lung cancer that they can’t get rid of so I figure whatever she wants to do is ok with me, I’ve seen the damage those little fuckers can do I once thought a friend had rats chewing his wiring in his attic then he shined his flashlight towards the back of the attic and about 3 squirrels were back there, chewed another friends cedar siding on her beautiful home and my new lead boots over the plumbing stacks on the roof a year after a new roof job I had done, PS I used Peppermint oil and haven’t seen them around the vehicles 👍🙂
 
I was gonna say try deer or rabbit repellent spray, but glad the peppermint is working! Rabbit repellent has a smell not as rank as the deer repellent. We use both on our plants outside in the warm weather as our yard is full of rabbits, squirrels & chipmunks.

Kathy has a pet Rabbit, I was calling her Ellie Mae since she has so many outdoor pets, she hand feeds a cpl squirrels, Rockett is her favorite, when I was a kid in Oh we use to eat squirrel and when I lived in Mi but they’re too small here
 
Squirrels have a thing for pvc....they chew on anything plastic left a outside! I’m not a fan. I haven’t used it yet but I recently bought a S&W bb handgun just for the occasion I can’t stand it anymore! But I’ll try to refrain from such violence! 🥴
 
My building is infested with mice, I have to get rid of them, the Chicken coop draws them in. I have ordered a 5 lb box of rat poison, going to look into a bucket trap like in the video. Rat poison will be in the bottom, I do not show mercy to these varmints.

Two words: Glue traps. They work perfectly, and catches them every time. Buy the large ones to cover more area. It's all I use.
 
They’ve been using Soy Bean Oil in wire insulation and other plastics for awhile now and that’s what attracts them, Dinner Time

I need something that won't attract dirt in the coop. I have hundreds of mice that need to be killed, real infestation getting in my feed.

This is what I used but plants are a better idea I’d think
