- Try several bars of Irish Spring soap - (I think Coast is the same also) works for me in my storage shed with cars, but I also have to add that I have a couple of cats on the property as well. Don't

- [mouse problem] Rattlesnakes. Quiet, don't need to be fed like cats, and are hypo-allergenic! Until I acquired a cat that can survive outside, I had a few mice in my garage. They never caused a probl

- How about cat urine? You can either get it as a repellent spray, or just ask neighbors with cats to leave you some old kitty litter (put it outside around the shed) Chris K.

- We tried the "Irish Spring" fix in our laundry room a couple of years ago and the mice ate the soap. Maybe midwestern mice are tougher then the ones out east! Rich White St. Joseph, IL USA '63 TR3B T

- Thanks guys... I'll try the moth balls (I'd heard of that) and maybe a bar or two of Irish Spring - if one works, both should be better! 8-) Anything cat related is definitely out - my wife is deathl
