Your gonna get it tonight!

Suggested solution: If you kept the receipt, return the grain for a refund and give them an invoice for cleaning up mouse piss. And if you really want to catch the mouse and get revenge, disguise yourself as a wedge of cheese and sleep in the car with a gun and shoot him as he returns from hiding. You can't just let him get away with this!

Not possible the larger sacks were untouched and only small holes chewed into the paper bags, but I don't see how you could scoup gains without noticing something like that! Yes the windows were up and all the doors were closed, trunk latched.

I wood like to figure out how the mouse is getting in. My 3 is an 18 must so it's possible there's some panel gap it something that it is squeezing though. Does someone know where the rear vent is that allows you to close the door? I believe all cars have them, and it's probably in the trunk somewhere and I would like to inspect mine.

A bit messy - but try baby powder. Put in all over your trunk mat, then follow the footprints. This worked great in my old townhome - tracked the damn thing coming out from where sink piping was, up the counter, across the kitchen and up the pantry.

From the title I thought there was going to be some kinky stuff happening in OP's M3.

I hope the blood doesn’t splatter on the headliner. It’s so hard to remove.

Worse, he could be driving a Kia Soul. You'll never get rid of the rodents.

Peanut butter and an electric trap. Don’t want mouse guts all over the car.

Not sure about mice, but rats love nuts. An exterminator once told me his favorite rat bait was a bit of peanut butter flavor Clif bar. I've since used it with basic wooden Victor snap traps and it catches them every time.

Using a delicious treat to catch the mouse inside the car might work, but won't that also attract other rodents that otherwise wouldn't have cared about the car?
Maybe a circle of peanut butter around the car will protect it from rodents.

LOL! Well one could try this:

One of my sons had a mouse problem in one of his college apartments. He and his roommates were able to zap them with one of these. (He says his exact model isn't available anymore, but you get the idea.)

Yea the problem is I have dogs. But I'm going to set several more traps in safe locations in the garage tonight.

Just checked the traps; no PB, no mouse. Traps were still set
Mouse : 1
Tesla Owner : 0

I made sure to glob the PB inside the curled piece this time. Tonight that mouse is going to get it!

Also ordered one of those roller traps for garage use.

When we had mice in the house last year, ants would eat the PB before the mice got there (and of course, ants don't set off the traps). Maybe you just have some clever mice, but I wouldn't rule out something like bugs eating the PB either!

Another vote for peanut butter and the electric mouse traps. They are safe for use around dogs and cats, too.

In addition to the one inside your car, I'd setup another four or five around the car. I think setting one up at each wheel would be a good way to entice them before they use the wheels as ladders into your Tesla.

I've had great luck with the electric traps and peanut butter. The lethal shock is instant, so there's no chance of the mouse suffering. There's also no chance of a gory result damaging the interior of your car with hard to remove rodent parts/liquids.

Put a little DC motor on the roller and regen a little trickle charge into that finicky 12v battery.

Almonds, peanut butter, flour & salt, or Emergen-C. One of these will work.
