mice!?! whoa! i've never had a mice problem, but i'd clean the engine bay with some simple green. rinse off, and spray the hoses with armor all. i'll ask my vet friend what she'd do.
Four mice have bitten the dust so far this week, and no new nest! Yesterday I forgot to take the mouse traps out of the engine while I took it out for a ride. Lucky for me, they just settled down in a safe spot until I realized what I had done! Knucklehead!!!

Not sure if I am brave enough to clean the engine myself. Knowing my luck, I'll trash something. I did pull out the shop-vac and vaccummed up the engine-nest crap. (I know, this is the girly thing to do!)

Did your vet friend have any bits of wisdom? I'm curious what he/she says. If I didn't think it was cruel, I would tie one of my cats up near the car for the night. She (the cat) is a wicked mouser, but I would never tie her up anywhere.
