Hi Everyone,

I'm curious if any one has some experience in where mice typically get into Civic EG hatchbacks.
I know I can put traps or cats in the car but would like to plug the hole (s) if I can.

Thanks,

John

 

Probably through the exterior vent holes below the windshield wipers.

 

Thank you, I'll look into that.

 

They could get in through the air outlet assembly. This is the little flapper that is under the rear bumper that lets the pressure wave out of the car when you close a door, and prevents suction from occurring when you open a door.

They could also have entered through one of several grommets on the firewall if they are missing, or if the rodent chewed through the rubber.

 

The bastards got into mine through the air outlet assembly.

 

I used to put mothballs in a plastic cup and leave in my truck to keep mice away when I wouldnt drive a while, seemed to keep them away. But smelled like old people.

 

are you leaving leftover food in the car? That will definitely attract those rodents.

 

Thanks, I'm aware of that.

 

you just solved your own problem....LOL

 

LOL, actually, they will nest in vehicles that have no food in them like our farm truck. So no, that doesn't solve the problem.

But thanks for your helpful comment anyway.

Have a good one.

 

Theres a vent in the trunk they can probably push past, the ac blower motor vent that leads into the the windshield cowl. I think thats it.
