Keeping Mice from building nests on engines

Could install a blacksnake in the garage.you might try capsacian
(red pepper) probably wont stop them though,rodents need to chew on things to keep thier teeth from becoming to long,its really hard to keep mice and rats out of under used vehicles.The more open it is around your parking area the fewer rodents you will have, mice love cover and keep garbage in something the little critters cant get in-Kevin
