So Brian went to Bunnings to purchase 6 traps - 4 x rats and 2 x mice, which have been baited with cheese and placed on the floor of the vehicle. This evening two traps have been tripped but no catch. This means there is a rodent in the vehicle with which we must travel tomorrow morning, unless there is a successful trap overnight. Not a pleasant thought with three more days of travel to come!!
Brian rang Toyota to discuss the situation and received some very unpleasant news. He was told that this was a serious problem and that a mouse could do an incredible amount of damage to wiring, upholstery, and all of the interior and dashboard. The Toyota advice included a statement that recently an owner needed to pay about $2,000 to have all of the damage repaired!!!
Tomorrow's blog may reveal more !!!
So it looks like tomorrow we will be heading south along the highway with a rodent hitching a ride in the truck!! Judy will tuck her tights inside her socks just in case a mouse tries to run up her leg.
