Rat/mice spray/deterrent ???

[12ring]

Google brought up several different kinds.

Hoping to spray on my Kawasaki mule to keep them from chewing wires.

Just spent a small fortune fixing chewed wires and dont want to do it again.

Wife's afraid poison will kill the dogs so looking for other options.

Heard lots of farmers use some kind of spray on equipment and vehicles.

Just wanting to get the best one.

Any advice is appreciated.

If the motor is under the seat, leave the seat up.

Leave the bed up, spray everything with the peppermint based stuff. It has worked thus far for us on hunting trucks.

We also park them on bare ground, round up it every year. Can put mothballs on the ground under it if you don't have to hang out close to it.

I had some rats and a pack rat invade my trailer at the lease. I spread chunks of Irish Spring soap in the cabinets and corners and have not seen any pest since that time. Also put in my rifle blinds, It definitely worked for me. Dollar Tree super cheap. It works.

I have had good luck with peppermint oil in my lease truck. Took snuff can poked holes in lid and put cotton balls in can. Put under the hood.

My buddy put the irish spring soap in his lease camper. Rats ate the soap.

I use pinesol in my lease trailer. It has worked well.

This^^^ . I saw some where the other day where they mounted under the hood, one of those ultra sonic sound things you can plug in the house. Irish Spring soap bars too.

leave it in cups?

[ladybluearm]

Yes on the Irish spring soap. Have used it for years with no mice issues.

Never had much luck with any sprays. Only thing that has worked for me has been killing them. There is a downside though as I am not able to take my pup with me to the lease.

This has definitely worked for me in a tractor cab, not sure how it would work in open air.
