Pack Rats?

joasis

Anyone have any sure cures for pack rats chewing on equipment? I spent $400 on my Bobcat last week on wire harness damage....my mini-ex is packed full of nests.....it may be that this year is extreme.

I have not had this problem but....

A guy I know lives in a wooded area and he has problems with mice getting in his trucks and chewing on wires. He has a small open top canister filled with moth balls stashed under the hood and he told me that keeps them away.

Certainly is worth a try, let me know if it works.

My old man had a serious squirrel problem they chewed up the wiring harness in his wifes suv, then chewed a hole in the side of the house and were in the attic. Caynne pepper worked like a champ!

chicken wire. well, no, not exactly chicken wire, but the stuff at the local hardware store that resembles chicken wire. i think they call it garden wire. it has a green plastic coating. i used it to stop squirrells from entering this lady's property one time.
