My current solution is leaving the hood open while the car is parked, which is a damn hassle. I started the puppy pee experiment the other day. there are strange smells coming from the engine compartment of the Subaru, but I can't tell if it's the pee or what. So far, no new mouse gnawing.
I'm still afraid to drive the Subaru at night, since the dealer couldn't find what caused the overheating we had a couple of weeks ago.
The cat brought in a dead rat the other day, and I wanted it thrown into the trash and taken to the dump. My pagan-Catholic wife insisted on saying prayers over it first (don't know if they were pagan or Catholic prayers). I think I've married a rodent sympathizer.
