I bought a bottle of the blue stuff back in November and put it in the passenger's seat so I'd see it and remember to fill the reservoir. Of course before I got around to it, an actual passenger ended up in that spot and the bottle was moved to the back seat. Then in preparation for my Christmas Eve party, I had to haul a small table, large pot and other supplies, so the bottle got moved to the trunk. A couple days later, I moved it to my nephew's booster seat. It remained there until Saturday, when I moved it back to the passenger's seat, and swore that I'd take care of it once and for all.
Imagine my surprise when I opened the hood of the car and found this.
It looked like someone had thrown up a mess of Ramen noodles on top of the engine, but who would do such a thing?
Apparently it wasn't noodle vomit, but on the disgusting scale, it was something pretty close-- a mouse nest. Yeah, very nice! I'm not sure exactly what differentiates a mouse nest from a rat nest, but to maintain my sanity I'm going to continue to believe it's the nest of a very tiny mouse and nothing else.
Still, I'm left with a persistent question, "if they can get under the hood of the car, can they get inside the car too?"
Ugh, I don't even want to think about it!

Wow, imagine that. imagine having a mouse in your car. Can you imagine it launching itself into your hair while you are driving, or running up your leg.
Wow. I'm glad I don't have a mouse nest in my car.
Yeah, thanks Dan.
You're the reason I'm now riding around with a box of d-CON under the front seat.
