moth ***** work for real? I could just put em down around my truck. I am trying to figure it out though, because I would have to do this constantly. I asked the guy if I lifted my truck if they would still get in, and he said duh, they can jump 6 inches. The HOA says they won't do anything because I am supposed to park in the garage I am quite pissed off. I also went to talk trade ins because in the end I may have to get rid of it, my girlfriend won't ride with me because she is worried they will chew through the brake lines. They said my 05 silverado that I still owe 24.5k on, is only worth 18.5 because of the gm employee price for everyone. I just don't know what the F to do, this is insane...

we have a rat problem in our barn. Walk out there at night with th red rider and take care of em. LOL Have fun with mothballs...youll smell like an old guy. Traps are effective if you mix Peanut butter and honey and whipe a small amount on the actualator on the trap. WATCH YOUR FINGERS it hurts like hell to get snapped! They also have rat bait but it doesnt work in my barn because they have animal feed that must taste much better because they rarely eat it. good luck!

true, I was thinking worst case senerio was would be he crawled into the radiator shroud and got sliced, but we are referring to a 2005, which has the electric fans

If you use poison and they die up inside your truck somewhere, your in for a hell of a stinch, i work at a place that has rats and one got inside the dash of a sweeper truck and died. It was in there for ONE day, the smell when tryng to get it out almost made me puke. And i was just holding the flash light several feet away. So maybe a cats the best bet, anyways Good luck.
