    1 yr old tractor. Forgot to put mothballs under cover before winter. Never had a problem before with any other tractors.20240410_120554.jpg

    That sucks. Time for a barn cat maybe. I'm not a cat person, but they serve a purpose.

    I would be looking for the spot they put that insulation (a nest somewhere). Maybe in an engine bay, or house/garage. They don't eat it, they use it to make nests, probably for babies.

    From the pic of that seat, might not be a mouse, chipmunks. Either way you got an issue. Mothballs, mousetraps, live traps.

    all the wiring was spared, no homes in the air cleaner, everything works just fine. replaced the blades on the deck, greased the available fittings, and put 3 mows in. a $10 seat cushion is now my chair. gonna look to see if I can find a high back replacement seat. upgrade once its damaged right?
