Mice in tractor cabs

[RBP]

Any recommendations for keeping mice out of tractor cabs?

Clean the cab out good and get some cats.

All cats do around here is fatten the coyotes

Don't park tractors where there are mice. I keep the buckets in the barn amd use Irish spring in the vehicle.

Irish Spring soap? How do you use it?

I keep the plastic box with rat bait in it behind the seat. It has an opening just big enough for a mouse to chew on the bait but not get in. Had a bad experience with mice. After several years trying to get the smell out I used an Amorall car bomb and it actually work. No more smell

Irish Spring soap? How do you use it?

I rip the short ends off the box of bar soap and leave it sitting in the box. That keeps the soap from rubbing around on things but let's out plenty of smell. As an example, I keep a bar in my Mule Pro under the hood. When you sit in the seat you cam get a whiff now and then. They claim mice hate the smell.

Advertise as a cat sanctuary and you'll have more cats than the coyotes can eat.

Interesting, I will have to give it a try.

we use cling-free dryer sheets in our vehicles over the winter. haven't had a problem since we started using them. just set one or two in the cab and let the sent be with you.

Put a drop or two of peppermint oil on a cotton ball or two and put it in the cab. They make spray bottles of the stuff but if a local store has the little bottles of oil that is a cheaper route.

We use the fabric softeners for nephews BioZyme bags of product to keep mice/rats away.
Don't know why, but they work.

either of these are pretty foolproof

Probably trip the GFI breaker and second one gets all the peanut butter.

You really think the guy that makes that kind of trap uses a gfi?

Well, probably not. Probably has an old style fuse box with the blown fuses wrapped in tin foil to keep them going.

Tractor Supply and the John Deere store here has a spice bag that Mice and Rats hate. I love the scent, and just buy it because I like it. People ask what it is I have in my truck. It is called "Fresh Cab" Rodent Repellent Let me get a link.... Well, Rats.. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/fresh-cab-1-botanical-rodent-repellant-10-oz
