>...I have a non-university client that would like to keep the mice out but >doesn't really want to use any lethal means.... >Phil Romano Phil, List, -------------------------------------- This from Paul Chick, July 19th, 2000: We've been putting dried lavender in the pianos in our shop to repel mice for several years now. Its the most effective thing so far. I buy it from craft stores that carry supplies for dried floral arrangements. It is cut up and loosely wrapped in fine gauze material to form a sachet. One or two placed in each piano does the trick. -------------------------------------- Myself, I mouse proofed a console once by blocking all potential access places with heavy type metal screen material from a hardware store. Took awhile to install. Keith McGavern, RPT Oklahoma Baptist University Saint Gregory's University Shawnee, Oklahoma, USA
