Any insight into places to look, or what to do, would be great. I'd like to stop from them getting in, not deal with them after the fact.
Trapped 3 mice last night inside my 2017 F450. We found mouse crap on the floor boards in the afternoon, set traps, and woke up to 3 dead ones in 3 traps, so there may be more.
I had a 2013 F450 and not ever a mouse, so I am a bit frustrated that the new truck has them getting in.
I found that there are little rain / drain flaps on either side of the cowling in front of the windshield, and they could possibly go in there, and that would lead into the fresh air system, but I believe I ordered this truck with the cabin filter, and they can't come through that can they!? Maybe chewed through the filter? I can't seem to get it out, its in a tight spot behind the glove box.
Went to Ford dealership yesterday to ask questions, they weren't helpful. Acted like they didn't really care, and shrugged their shoulders. I asked for help on diagrams or schematics of the vent system, or holes in the firewall to check and they didn't really help.
These mice will destroy this thing. Really concerned.
