I have a mouse problem in my garage, I've tried the electronic pesticide.. it's not working well. The mice come in for the winter and have destroyed my cabin air filters.
I have found the droppings each year since installing the electronic unit.
So now I am trying an old remedy of mothballs. I sprinkled them around the garage perimeter, fortunately my dog won't go near them, he backed away from the smell. And boy do they stink.
I think I read years ago that throwing one in a draw with tools kept the rust away. Is this true?
I hate the smell but have a bunch left, and wondered if I can preseve some tools by throwing a ball in there.
