But two weeks ago, I opened the truck and spotted a mouse running around. I put a trap in the truck and caught a mouse. The next weekend I saw a partially built nest and put another trap in the truck. Caught another mouse. Being worried about mice getting into the car, I removed the cowl under the windshield, cleaned out the drains, and put a 1/4" mesh screen over the air vent into the cabin. This weekend, I ended up trapping 7 more mice using one trap in the truck and one inside the cabin on the drivers side floor. The windows are rolled all the way up and there aren't any holes in the ragtop. Looking around the truck with the coverings removed and looking around the firewall, there don't seem to be any obvious openings for the mice. I know they are small and can squeeze through most holes, but I'm not seeing any obvious places where light is coming through. Any suggestions or idea how they might be getting into the cabin? (I'm hoping this is the last of the litter from the first mice before the screen was in place, but that's worrying since that probably means they have eaten my wiring harness to hell .)
Thanks in advance, sincerely
Jerry
