Tape rodent by Honda -- Does it work?

[Chicora]

Came across this while looking for ways to keep mice and all away. Anybody heard of this? Does it work?

Not sure from the description of how this works. I presume it is to wrap wiring? Does 20m refer to length of the roll? Twenty meters would wrap a whole lot of wire. Of course, the rat would probably attack the wiring I could not reach.. I will "wrap" up this conversation and google the product for more info. Now if my Mav would just get here... Rodents are probably waiting also.

I posted this before you completed your entry. Looks like a person could spray a Chile pepper solution on the wiring occasionally?? May need a surfactant to make it stick better like vegetable oil (not much). Have to be spicy hot though

Here are few suggestions I received for a rodent issue.

Looks like duct tape with pictures of mice on it. Guess someone at Honda has a sense of humor. The tape is infused with capsaicin. Looks like a lot of time under the hood and under the car.
The sprays have to be applied often. Spray one day, drive in the rain the next day, respray. Too bad the manufactuers can't put a little Ghost Pepper juice on the wiring at the factory.

I keep a bag of moth balls under the hood. Replace every 3 months. Seems to keep the ravenous squirrels out of my Maverick (and the preceding F-150).

I take it the mothball smell doesn't make its way into the cabin then?

They help keep one's sinuses clear!! Also do not have to worry about moths if you leave any clothes hanging in your Mav

My dad just gave me a wool blanket that had been stored 20 years in a barrel with mothballs. My wife would not even let that thing in the house. I could cut it up and sell you each a piece.

I like the pepper tape. Honda had to do something after putting their hoses together with peanut oil.

I use ultra sonic rodent deterrents in the garage. About 6 of them all the way around the perimeter. Then I put moth balls in a cookie sheet on the garage floor under each car, spring snap traps for the mice with yummy Jif PB and decon poison on the shelf. Overkill? Well, you could make that case, but no problems in 10 years since a mouse chewed on the Sonata's wiring that Hyundai fixed for nothing so they could get paid by corporate for the parts they replaced before they found the problem.

Not yet but been looking at something similar to add to the arsenal of defense weapons. Can't hurt and cheap enough.
