I place dryer sheets in and around my lawn equipment in the fall, when i put them inside. Seems to help keep them out of the works. Mice love to crawl up inside the flywheel cover, build a nest, and eat the insulation off the spark plug wire-s, and use the coil area for their latrine! A local widow asked me to see why her lawn tractor wouldn't start, so i rolled it out of the nice shed where her late and lamented husband had put it, last year. I removed the air filter cover and mesh, and found the whole area under the flywheel cover stuffed full of detritus! And, the coil wire was bare! Of course, a dead battery, and rotten gasoline helped the no-start condition. I told her i'd have to take it to my home to work on it. I guess she didn't trust me, as she didn't give me the ok to take it. So, she can either wait for a miracle to happen, or go on paying $50 every week to have some lawn service mow her grass!
