WICKED PISSA!

[c_rex]

well, weeks later, the audi was in the shop and i needed to borrow the tacoma.
on my way to work, i thought i saw something move, i look over, and that lil bugger was sitting on the passenger seat floor. 
i don't like mice, so i pull over, and he dissapeared..... again.

from that day on... i can't help but feel a little weird in that truck. 

Awesome story! Has me laughing.

not me dude... 

i'm not fond of mice

Pellet gun?

I'd get some hollow point .22 varmint rounds, and set up a sniping point with my bolt action. 10x scope and 11 round mag, the littler buggers wouldn't stand a chance.

'Course that would attract "attention" if you live in a populated area...

Yeah, get a cheap 10/22 and some CCI Mini-Mag's (my plinking ammo of choice).

If you have cash and think plinking will be fun, and varmint hunting will be useful, a 17HMR dedicated rimfire rifle (teeny round) is designed to liquefy the guts of a squirrel.

yeh, if i got the gun before they trashed my truck, i could have afforded the gun. now, not so much....

i live out in the sticks, but do have enough homes down range ( i live higher on the hill than anyone else... king of the hill i guess) that i need to be very considerate of where i aim.

gonna try some hollow point pellets here soon though.... i hit one today and it went right on through. i could tell he was hit, but he went down the hole before i could finish. i dont like that...

I almost forgot about my rodents-in-the-car story... My family used to have an Audi 4000S Quattro, and one day when we opened the glovebox we discovered it was completely filled with a mouse nest made of insulation and newspaper. We tore it out, and never did find the inhabitants...

I often hear stories of bikes left in winter storage... When spring comes around they try to fire it up and it won't run properly. After some messing around they open the airbox to discover a huge nest blocking the air filter. Seems that the mice like crawling into intake ducts.

i should set up some kind of high voltage electrical current under the hood of my truck when its parked
i wonder...

NO, for the love of beer man. You could end up harming one of the squirrels natural predators like this poor SOB:

they're still in there... lurking

All this stuff reminded me:  My friend's cat made a bed beside the serpentine belt of her mom's car once...once 

[TiNi]

that's awful 
poor kitty...

grrrreaaaat... today my neighbor told me that she and two others have found that they have rats in their houses.  this thread has me paranoid.  tomorrow I must don the respirator, gloves and duct tape a flashlight to my pellet gun while crawling under my house to spread some rat-ppetizers.  maybe I'll pour a six pack into my Camel back and just sit down there with my semi-auto .22 rifle and 50 round banana clip.

or you could start a snake farm

there is no question in my mind...
