What ever method you use they will eventually find a way around it . Metal box traps work but there are cheap ones on the market now that dont work -- the ones that work say tin cat stamped in the metal lid . Dont buy any thing else even if they are on sale . You can make a trap out of a 20 liter pail with water in the bottom and a roller on top. Go to you tube for instructions on how to make . Of course you will have to substitute anti freeze for the water when it gets cold. Be sure to keep your pets away from the anti freeze as it is poisonous . When it comes to vehicles poison does work but they will get wise to it and will avoid it after awhile. Also you will get dead mice in spots where you cannot find them and get rid of the smell. Some vehicles mice cant get in but others are terrible such as a motor home -- you will never find all the ways they get in . Here there is clearly a conspiracy between the manufactures and hordes of mice . If you cant keep them out you have to allow room for a predator to get in . Keep a window down and a board ramp up to it . Keep a door ajar blocked form closing with a block of wood. Leave the glove compartment open . Storage buildings--- be sure to have a hole big enough for a cat to get in . Do this even if you dont have cats -- there are lots of other predators that eat mice that you will never see or know about . Combines leave the cab door open along with any acess pannels to closed in areas -- any spot where you have had mice in the past try to leave a hole at least big enough for a weasel to get in . Dont shoot foxes or coyotes as they eat many mice out in the fields that will eventually find there way into your yard .
