[QUOTE="FJRMaineiac, post: 1404950, member: 1061"] Mice (and perhaps chipmunks) are a peculiar problem and this isn't the first time I have had issues. My motorcycle is parked outdoors during the summer (under cover of one of those "temporary" garage / tent type things. I also live in the woods, and this has been a particularly heavy year for acorn production. Oak trees go through cycles and in the years where there is a 'bumper crop' of acorns, critters busy themselves with finding places to store them for when the need them later. Apparently my motorcycle has been particularly attractive for some reason because I have emptied bushels of acorns some years and none during others. What is more strange to me is that they don't seem to find homes in my other vehicles (trucks / cars) also parked outside. During the summer, the motorcycle is my daily driver, so my truck sits more, but for some reason they still like to nest in the motorcycle. I will have to be more diligent in setting traps or other home remedies. Cats might be a solution for some, but I am allergic to them so that won't work. [/QUOTE]
