mouse invasion! V70-XC70 2006

Volvo speed Bay 13 has a couple of cabin filter instructions.

The best way to check your interior for mice is to set some traps around your car and under the hood for a week or so, then set a couple inside the car after you have cleared the outside.

A company named Kness makes terrific mouse traps.

Their snap-E trap has several advantages - it has a strong spring - because it only travels 90 degrees, it is twice as fast as a common trap - the plate around the bait cup is all around the bait, and it catches mice from any direction.

I really like their traps, and I catch mice in my home, garage, storage trailer, and shed. I even have a trap attached to the front bulkhead in my XC 70s - I have trapped two mice under their hoods - and I have two cats!

I have trapped 30 mice or so - my daughter in Minnesota has trapped over a hundred in her small barn (she has goats) and two weasels!

In order to keep my cats from messing with my traps, I cut a 1 inch hole in plastic coffee containers and set the traps inside the containers. Your wife won't have to look at dead mice either.
