Mouse hole?

I just changed the cabin air filter--and found a dam' mouse nest on top of the filter! I can't find any holes that get into the air duct that seem big enough to allow both the rodent and the ~1" cube of compressed alfalfa in.

Any suggestions?

 

Time to either get a cat, or a supply of mouse traps!

 

Dilute some arsenic in some water and soak your in cabin air filter for a little while before you install it. I would would also pick up a gas mask for your self just to be safe

 

We had a mouse in our house and the hole he found was about the size of a nickle. They can squeeze through very small places.

 

Nasty stuff your breathing.

Read through this thread ... Worked great for my 2011 Tacoma

 

Basically, any opening they can get their skulls through, they can enter. Once I went on a five day backpack in the Smokies park, leaving my car, a Buick, in the parking lot at Newfound Gap, high point of the trans-mountain road. It was hot and when I climbed in to start the car, when the air came on, I got a face full of mouse nest. Very unpleasant...

 

Be suspicious of anything that looks like this:

 

Thanks a bunch. Just what I needed. I had to do some similar protecting on a '68(!) Chevy PU and a Mitsubishi Montero.
