Sam,
     You have some wimpy mice.   I've tryed moth balls
a couple of time, without any luck.  At one point somthing
was eating them.   I even found a moth ball spray.  It
wasn't any good ether.    I have a shed that is full of mice.
They eat the H&ll out of my lawn mowers.  Some reason
they like spark plug wires.  My silver syncro is the only
vehicle they haven't gotten in.  Its up on jack stands..
                                               ERic
