Mice inside my generator!?

[Johnynorthland]

I went to change my oils in the generator today. It’s been a year, (I never reach the hours), and when I took off the cover I found straw and bits of foam everywhere! At first I thought it might of been from lawn maintenance around different lots and spots, but when I spotted bits of foam, I kinda figured who did it! Don’t know where I picked up the hitch hiker(s), starting last May, I’ve been all the way up i10 to CA to PA, back to florida with about 10 stops in other states in between. The generator has ran through most of my trips so I’m sure they got chased out at one point.

I don’t see any damage from chewing, but there’s a lot of little nooks and cranny’s for them to roam!


Anyone ever have them camp out with you? Any damage done?

I have had them in the Rv, boat, truck and garage. To date no damage. A few years ago I tried Bob cat Urine sprayed around the camper and on scent tags hanging underneath. I respray once amonth or so during winter storage.So far so good, no sign of them since I started using it. Although I haven't opened the Generator yet... Now I gotta go look....lol
