Noted. Thank you! Mice. Still will work great. 🎉😊
Doesn't look like the moth balls worked very well given the amount of rat scat around? Why not place glue traps around? They're cruel but effective.
When you open a door you can see a little tunnel behind the front fender. A week after I bought my NB I discovered a dead rat in there - I found it by smell so it was still 'fresh'. Gross! Leaves and other debris can collect in that little pocket, nice and cozy for a rat I guess.
Miata man help! I have been working on learning pdr and knocked loose the passenger door lock. It pushes into the door when the key is inserted. Can you do a video showing how the door lock cylinder secures in the door and interacts? Thanks!
Almost forgot, the passenger side has always been finicky, I'll have to lower the passenger window and manipulate the inner lock slider and the key outside the door a certain way to get it to unlock sometimes.
Congratulations on learning the art of PDR. That’s on my list of things to learn.
The lock cylinder has a spring clip that holds it in place. If you remove the interior door panel, you can access the two 10mm bolts that hold the door handle to the door.
Then you should be able to pull the door handle out enough to see what’s happening.
Thanks!
I keep mine in a garage that's sealed pretty good but that doesn't mean they can't get in at times.
Do they ever eat on the wiring?
I've heard squirrels can get in there too.
They don’t always eat the wiring, but it does happen. Luckily the Miata does not have ridiculous Soy Based Wiring like a lot of newer cars do. Rats love newer cars. Wiring is so delicious 😋
Can you please list the active ingredient in your moth ball sachets? Thanks for the video!
Most commercially available "MOTH BALLS" contain:
Naphthalene
Camphor
...
COOP
Paradichlorobenzene according to the packaging. They have trademarked it “PARA-ZENE”
How do you clean this…
I ended up hosing everything out and disinfecting with “Spray Nine” cleaner.
