Doug, 
 Saw your post tonight. Sorry to hear about the mice. Take my advice, don't waste your 
time with rags or hillbilly chrome (duct tape). Those buggers just make nests out of 
these things. Instead use steel wool in the holes, they won't chew through the 
steel. Anyway, the steel wool is an old timer's trick used to keep mice out of holes in 
your walls. My problem is with moth larve eating my cover. OFF makes a new product 
called Moth Away that's supposed to kill the larve AND repel mature moths so they won't 
lay more eggs. The added benefit of this product is that it dosen't stink like moth 
balls, nor is it cancerous.
