Easy entrance for mice into any 940 900

Easy entrance for mice into any 940

We already know mice are attracted to the 940, but with the genius of hindsight, I finally figured out where those @#$% mice are getting into the back tire compartments of my 945T. It's those two black plastic boxes mounted on the sidewall of the side compartments.

Obviously some kind of ventilation device... since when reaching under them there's a flexible rubber flap that I assume opens up at speed to air out the compartments. Probably more of an exit for the interior air I'd guess... where the cabin air is sucked out to create an inflow from up front. They lead to some air space behind the bumper. Easy as pie for those mice to scurry right in.

I'm cutting some board to rubberband over the openings till the little buggers are exterminated.

Did the mothballs... the Febreze... found a mouse nest in the carport... set the traps, got the D-Con... cleaned everything up.

I HATE MICE!!!!
