    My former boss uses Fresh Cab rodent repellent in his skid steer in engine area and other vital spots and swears by it. It’s in a pouch that breathes and smells great, I use it in my rv with great results also!

    As a former rv owner the best thing we found were LED lights and leaving the hood open when parked. We tried Irish spring, the mice ate it. Mothballs are toxic to all animals that might eat them including your pets.

    These nests are a potential fire hazard and have been known to cause fires which as you can imagine will be out of control very quickly and result in having a totalled vehicle. Please pay attention to stuff like this. Just as bad as the fuel filter issue when they start spraying fuel and that goes downhill quick too. Keep a fire extinguisher in your truck and always check down in the valley for the stuff these critters like to put down there to make their lil 'condos in the valley'!👌🏻👍🏻🛠️🔧🔩🚫🐁❌🐀🎯🏹⚡

    Yep I’ve that problem before, mouse nest in the valley of my 6.7. I took some pill bottles and drilled several holes in them then filled the bottles with Cotten balls and added peppermint oil. Hung the bottles under the hood, so far so good.

    The audio repellents are no go. Tons of studies on them report them to be ineffective. LED lights can bug them though.
    I need something to repel bad fuel. Got some water somewhere and some metal crud. My CP4 has over 201,000 on it and it will likely fail now.

      @@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Nuh-uh... They have kits for 15-16 and 17-23, but no 11-14. The pulley system and belt for the 15-16 kit is designed to be grooved on only one side and Ventech says you'd have to change the 11-14 fan pully & casting to a 15-16 to make it work, but I thought it would be as easy as including some grooved idlers and a double grooved belt, maybe just the one for the double alt setup idk, I just know Ventech themselves say there's no 11-14 kit... It literally takes the place of the 2nd alt, so it should be easy, but I guess not, verify yourself, no 11-14 kit... There's a lot of 11-14 trucks, make it happen cap'n, it's going to be cold soon!

    A couple months ago I had a Rat in the engine valley of my 450. The dogs were going nuts under my truck, and this is how I found out that I had this problem. I stuck a paint stick down into the engine valley and was able to poke the Rat enough to make it run out under the truck but it went up above the spare tire. I decided to take a drive and that Rat bastard made its way forward and got tangled up in the serpentine belt and engine fan. Broke the belt and killed the Rat, but now the truck is undriveable. Ended up having to get towed, and what a mess to clean up. This is when I found out that not every parts store (not even the Ford dealer) had a serpentine belt for a dual alternator 6.7. Had to order it. Got everything fixed and low and behold I saw another one in the engine valley. I put a large snap trap with peanut butter on the business end of the trap. The next morning I found the trap with the other Rat out on the driveway. So far, no more signs of any more rodents.

    Honda sells "rat" tape. No joke, its electrical tape impregnated with something rodents leave alone. Wrapped several feet of it around various looms under the hood when I had squirrels in a Tundra a couple years ago. Had to splice wires on 3 injectors and the MAF sensor. Wire looms were in their way to nest around the intake.

    I took a couple of pill bottles with snap on lids, drilled a shitload of tiny holes in them. Stuffed the bottles with cotton, then soaked that with concentrated peppermint oil. Hung one off a wiring harness on each side of the engine. I try to refresh the oil every 6 months or so, Spring and Fall. So far, so good!

    I purchased a new-to-me 2018 F250 Plati 6.7 back in 2021. As I was going over it at home I noticed a mass of sunflower seeds husks down in the valley. It took me several months to clean it out when I replaced the plastics intake manifold with a HSM setup. The mass of shells was significant and I was concerned about a fire hazard. Fortunately no electrical issues from the critters using that nest.
