That is a great technique. Thank you.

Man what an absolute waste of my fucking time I know how to clean an engine, you come up on search for how to install a car rodent Repeller, that's not what you're showing I know how to clean a car, I think everybody does what an absolute waste of my fucking time.

Yeah the wubwubwubwubwubwub

Just paid $5300 on my 2018 Prius C. Cried for days

Just costed me $2000.00 Leave that engine cover off, that makes them a home.

What about sealing any holes with steel wool?

Thanks, i didn't know about the safety issue of this. I will sort mine asap now. Good to see a professional advice video. 👍

Very helpful & straight to the point - tysm!

Great! Thank you so much!

FYI, ammonia and white vinegar spray also works.

I've had frequent gnawing damage under the car where any under hood treatment doesn't get close to. Fuel tank gauge pump & evap system wiring, I think it's a woodchuck cus I've chased one and it ran up under the cars. The places damaged could be easily reached from standing on the ground under them. A mouse would have to be hanging from above to reach there. Once had a rubber transmission oil cooler hose chewed open. When I started the car all the trans fluid blew out on the driveway.

So I get vibration especially when applying the breaks going downhill, my stearing wheel doesn't move dose this mean it's the rear roters?

Thanks for the vid. I have a 14 gl550 doing the same

Cleaning the belt isn’t addressing the issue. Rename your video.

BNN

Thanks for the helpful upload. Your experience and knowledge is very much appreciated. Keep informing the people...

Great visuals and animation! Nothing is better than seeing it for real.

Hi, what if the car is a plug-in hybrid? Can the engine bay be washed with water?

I work for Stox as a lift driver and that basically how i do it. You "roll" it on you then use your legs to lift it.

Very important to remember to check the wheel hub with a dial gauge to see if there is a run out problem from bearings assembly which may be the true cause of the disc warping- I have a Toyota truck and this is a common issue.

All tires are heavy to me. Just had to lift tires for my mom took them out her car last week put them back In this morning because we had to order our own. Yeah they’re definitely not super heavy but the shape makes them feel much more heavy at least to me. Definitely bent over, used all these weird movements. Have had low muscle tone since birth and I gotta watch how I lift things I could never lift using my legs or whatever the correct way is to lift things but definitely not your back. It’s just like a push up to me unfortunately, something I’ll never understand. Also had to watch my stomach this morning I didn’t want to poke it in any way but I’ll remember this for next time 🙏🏻

MOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!

For a much longer lasting result, place moth balls in a bag with holes or in netting and tie it under the hood away from moving or high heat areas. This last up to a year as the moth ball deteriorate. We have used this method for years with great results.

Warped rotors the easiest way to explain what's causing issues, rotors don't warp

Peppermint does not work

Good info! I'm going to do this tonight.

But cardboard? What did you say to get in hood?

I got f@@king rats in my motor!!!!

Thank you! Great explanation and wonderful demonstration. 😊

had a wiring/ rodent problem on my truck and my outboard motor sprayed everything with fluid film it is lanolin based and remains tacky ....they dont like it on their feet ....never had a problem since

Great Video. Informative and to the point. I had to load 4x tires on rims into the back of my SUV. I am a 67 year old woman and physically fit. This was super easy to do and only took a few minutes to load all the tires. Thank you.

I which i had a slow detracting seat belt at least i would know that when i get back it would be in but i have a no retracting seat belt. Well not quite, it goes in maybe half way but im tired of smashing the buckle at the bottom of the door.

I liberally sprayed a strong mixture of water & peppermint oil under the hood of my 2017 KIA. I also drilled holes in several old plastic medicine bottles and put peppermint soaked foam in them & tie strapped them under the hood. Around 3 or 4 days later I looked under the hood & could smell the peppermint but found feces & wire damage. I just happened to see the nose of a rodent peeking out the hole where the hood bumper stops had been (they had been chewed off). I sprayed insect killer in the hole and a HUGE RAT ran out of a hole. I do not know how a rat that big (at least 6 inches not including the tail) could have squeezed through the small hole but he did. It was an expensive repair. Peppermint may have worked for some but not for me.

Interesting that you never remove the engine cover. There are wires under it right.

Never spray the inside of the engine compartment with high pressure. Same goes for motorcycles. Low pressure only.

Peppermint oil is flammable, so is spraying it all over an engine compartment that gets hot not dangerous?

Thanks , but 6 minutes to say spraying peppermint oil is unnecessary. “ clean , dry, inspect, apply a peppermint oil spray to the inside of the engine bay”. Don’t give advertisers a chance.

I thought you were going to say "don't vote democ rat".

Put some peppermint oil on a piece of cloth inside the air filter box too. I found a half eaten bait block and peanut shells in mine? They love to shred the air filter too and use it for their nest. They are little buggers?

I was a New Zealand Dairy Farmer and have learnt alot about Leptospirosis over the years. My Vet told me to always wash food & Beer cans lids under a tap before opening. My fathers generation, most of the dairy farmers in my area, had caught Leptospirosis. The incubation period is three weeks. At Veterinary conferences, I am told, they randomly screen Vets, and discover many that have had lepto and not known it. Lepto hits some people hard and others not so much.

I just found signs of Mice in my Tesla! Immediately set a trap and have caught one. As an Ex Mechanic I am disappointed they can somehow get in to the cabin.

First time my C6 got attacked this winter in my attached three car garage 😢 Mice went for my cabin filter and took it apart for their nesting material making one somewhere not in the car I haven’t found yet. No wires eaten thank goodness but I’ll try this next fall and mothballs in the cabin filter housing.

Great video! Thanks!

Since I had rodents chew up my engine air handler (which, by the way in 2002 was made with a Soy based product instead of metal) I since have regularly sprayed the engine with diluted peppermint oil, placed two perferrated bags of mothballs on top of the engine, and added one portable electronic rodent repeller which makes a high pitched noise and flashes a strobe light every minute of so. Of course remove them when the engine is turned on. So far have never had another problem with critters trying to build nests inside the engine compartment. My RV shop says that they routinely see thousands of dollars worth of damage from Rodents. So, it is worth it to do whatever is necessary to keep it from happening.

How do you keep water out of the electrical system

Will a warped rotor set off the abs light on the dash?

Definitely need a mask.The dust particles of rat feces inhaled is not a good thing

Are you kidding, spraying the engine down with water ,see how that works out !!!

Pets control don't deal with car . They will just tell you put rat 🐀 tap .
