    before the rat died we would also find random rat droppings on the seat or if we got in the car late at night and the door light turned on you would see a flash of gray fur and it would disappear. that rat really did not want to leave that Lexus. man the smell of rat urine, droppings, corpse, purification sucked:mad: Once again OP i hope you good luck, i think my mom accidentally killed the thing thinking that she could force the rat out by blasting the heat and making it scamper out... but it died in there.

    Wrap the peanut butter a few times with dental floss.

    Since it is in your truck, i'd use a sticky trap or other live trap. Don't want mouse blood and guts in your truck.

    After you have caught it, check your cabin air filter then do this.

    Coming back from a cottage a few years back in he olde Chevy blazer, I felt something soft and fury on my toe.(wearing sandals). Looked down and there was a mouse sitting on my gas pedal foot, looking up at me.

    I was driving and told my buddy, hey there is mouse in here, he freaked but I kept cool as we were doing about 90km on the highway. We pulled off to a side road and opened the doors to coax it out, it just hid under center console. Mouse seemed to not be scared of my foot though. I sat down and a few minutes later it returned to my foot again, ,I swiftly booted it out with the quickness and wished it a good life.
