To catch the mouse, the interior of the Land Rover was completely dismantled. Mr. Shi, the owner of the private car, never expected that a mouse would end up inside his Land Rover, which he had purchased for over a million yuan, and that it would stay there for more than two months. With no other choice, he took the car to a repair shop and said that he would find the mouse at all costs. For 5 consecutive days, the mechanics at the entire car repair shop engaged in a tactical ‘game’ against this mouse… Private car owner: There’s a mouse in the car; the seats have been torn apart by it. Have you ever heard of such a thing? Mr. Shi, who lives in the northern suburbs of Xi’an, encountered such a troublesome issue. Two years ago, Mr. Shi spent over one million to buy a Land Rover. In August this year, he found a mouse in the car; the leather seat on the right side of the third row was chewed by the mouse. At that time he thought that it would leave in a few days. To his surprise, a month later, Mr. Shi found that the mouse was still living in the car. So, he drove the car to the 4S store, and the staff opened the car’s hood and checked it thoroughly, but no mice were found. Mr. Shi had no choice but to give up and drive home. However, half a month later, he found that the vehicle’s turn signal wire had been bitten through by rats again, so Mr. Shi went to Xi’an Road Leopard Auto Repair Service Company, which was located near his home. The maintenance staff checked for most of the day but still found no mice. Where on earth is that troublemaking rat hiding? Mr. Shi was extremely anxious and demanded that the auto repair shop find the mouse at all costs, even if it meant taking the car apart to locate it. At around 6 p.m. yesterday, the reporter went to this auto repair shop for an interview. “At that time, the car owner came over and said there were mice in the car, and it smelled like mice inside.” Hearing this, I was very surprised. ”Liu Zheng, the manager of the auto repair company, said that they can easily handle issues such as mechanical failures, electrical problems, and fuel system faults. However, they have no experience dealing with animals, so this is a bit difficult. Maintenance worker: A \"trap\" was designed to prevent mice from falling for it. While removing the seats, the maintenance worker discovered the scene of the mice’s activities; there were traces of sponge debris that had been bitten by the mice under the seats. To find the mouse, the maintenance staff held a special meeting to discuss countermeasures. First, it was necessary to determine whether there were mice in the car; they placed eight biscuits in various corners of the car, and the next day, one biscuit was found missing. Confirming that the rat was still in the car, they placed more mouse traps inside, but the rat only left a footprint on them before sneaking away. In order to catch the mouse as quickly as possible, the maintenance staff obtained a bucket about 50 centimeters tall, installed a shaft on it, and attached a board to the shaft, creating a seesaw-like structure designed to attract the mouse; once the mouse fell for the trick, it would drop into the bucket. I racked my brains thinking of various tactics, but just couldn’t catch the mouse. “The car owner was very anxious; he sent me messages on WeChat every day, searching for various ways to catch mice and giving us many suggestions. We were also anxious. ”Liu Zheng said that for five consecutive days, the repair workers tried various tactics to deal with the rats, but none of those methods worked. With no other choice, the vehicle had to be disassembled. During the disassembly of the vehicle, the mechanic found that the battery cover had two large holes caused by rats, the air conditioning filter cover had been torn apart as well, and there was a lot of dust on the carpets. In the end, the car was stripped down to just its shell. The repairmen finally found this troublesome mouse as well. Tracing the cause: the chestnuts in the car attracted mice. \"When he found it, mechanic Zhang Kaiqiang was shocked.\" ”The auto repair shop owner said that they place the car on a workbench and then lift it up to check the chassis. The repair technician used a strong flashlight to search for it; after a long time, he finally spotted a mouse inside the grille of the panel. Liu Zheng said, “Rats are very smart; they jumped out of the car right away, ready to flee.” Four or five of us surrounded it and caught it. ” In the place where the mouse lived, there were actually many chestnuts stored there. Afterward, upon asking the car owner, it turned out that a friend of his had given him a box of chestnuts, which he had kept in the car; this is what attracted mice to settle there, and they stayed for over two months. The witty mechanic even created a jingle about it: It was a worthy death; one didn’t die in vain. Having eaten chestnuts, built bridges, and drilled holes, I can move about freely. Rat traps, bucket traps, pulse air pressure, active bass speakers, and interior sterilization are all no problem at all; it remains firmly in its position, staying by Land Rover’s side at all times. In one word, mice are also intelligent. “It is best not to store food in the car, as this will attract animals to look for food inside. Additionally, the vehicle is sealed, and food stored inside for long periods is also harmful to the human body. Also, do not park vehicles around trees or bushes. ”Liu Zheng said.
