X5///Mouse

The other night my motion alarm kept going off at 3:30am in like random 501- minute intervals. Finally double locked it to disable the interior sensor...thinking my battery is dying causing issues.

The morning after, I find nibbled up tissue on my driver seat and a piece of paper under the passenger seat chewed up.

So I went fishing... the next day I find these...

How on earth did these get in the cabin?!!

I have a '72 2002tii that just sits outside and has no intruders ever...

Also, I wonder if there are more?!

Attracted to foodstuffs (even just crumbs).
When I lived in way Northern Maine my first winter there I witnessed mice coming into the garage once the winter season set in. Got to know folks and their cure was peppermint.
I started laying out peppermint oil all around the garage and basement. After those never saw a mouse. Kept 2 cars in garage for winter sleep and never had a critter in them.
The fix:
No edibles for them
Peppermint

Please, please don’t use glue traps. They are incredibly cruel and prolong suffering. Thanks.
