    Borax is something to add to the brew,its not nice stuff in big doses.In the cleaning isle at coles.
    1 teaspoon in a watering can is very good for seedlings too.Boron promotes cell growth.

    check aircon ducts - pull centre dash and look to see if they have come in there? and around the rubber grommets in fire wall?
    try a little talcum powder around ducts and look for the marks. Not many ways in really. - unless they are camped up in there ...

    I owned and operated a security business for many years and we regularly had problems of false alarms being caused by spiders and insects landing on detectors in home and rodents passing by detectors in factory and commercial premisses.

    When working with another company on a large installation, I was told to try spraying metho on and around the detectors.

    While surface spry would kill insects, the problem was that the alarm would still be triggered before the insect died.

    With the metho, because it contains Ipecac the insects and rodents are actually repelled and keep away from the detectors, and the effect lasts for up to 3 months.

    Might be worth the try?

    Dumb suggestion perhaps but what about those 12 volt rodent repellers?

    Zaparat? Ultrasonic Rodent Repeller 12v

    Seems a little excessive but given the issues you have perhaps not so much.

    Back after the 2011 floods through Victoria the rodents were in plague proportions and someone on here suggested this product from Derwent Traders.
    We purchased a tub and it is brilliant, cleaned them right up in no time at all. The blocks from the supermarkets were like candy compared to this stuff.

    That stuff looks awesome. Not too expensive either when you consider 5 packets of ratsack are $5-7 bucks.

    Cheers

    Rat's

    Racumin......sachets of a very potent blue coloured poison for Rat's and Mice....place it outside the location where the vehicle is kept i.e. not in the garage or shed. I use a 300mm length of 90mm water pipe with the ends capped and a 30mm hole in the end caps sufficient for mice and rats to enter but small enough to stop pets like cats and dogs getting at the baits. This stuff works really really well!
