Completely Off Topic ??

I keep my tractor in my shed. Toady I brought it around to the garage
to change the blades and noticed lying on the floor was a tiny little baby
mouse.
After further inspection I found a nest under the flywheel cover.

Is there anyway I can keep this from happening?

Install rat/mouse traps....... throw down poison pellets. Move back to the city and exchange mice for rats!

I use those sticky traps and drop a little piece of cheese in the center..Then see how fast you catch the furry little pest..


What kind of tractor is it?

You do not need them hiding in the motors at all.. Try that solution that I use..Works every time
