How To Keep Rats Away From Cars During Monsoon – Essential Tips
Taking care of your car during the monsoon season itself is a task. On top of that, the chances of rats finding shelter in your car multiply during the monsoon season. As such, here are a few tips to keep rats away from cars during monsoon season.
Do Not Keep Food Items In Cars
Rats and other pests are attracted to food items. As such, it is best to avoid eating food items in your car and keep your car's interior free of any food items. So, keeping your car clean will no longer attract rats or other rodents.
Do Not Park In Dark Areas
Rats prefer to take shelter in dark places. This means the engine bay of a parked car will look quite attractive for a rat to stay away from predators such as cats, owls, etc. As such, it is best to keep your car parked in a clean and well-lit area.
Tobacco Leaves
Keeping a bunch of dried tobacco leaves inside the engine bay and the interior of a car is a popular method to keep rats away. In fact, many people claim this method to be very effective against rats.
Repellent Sprays
Using specialised rat-repellent sprays has been proven to be quite effective in keeping rats and other rodents away from cars. These specialised sprays can be easily purchased through various online stores.
Pets
Pet animals such as cats and dogs work as a very effective biological deterrent against rats and other rodents. However, this is not a very feasible option for every car owner.
Thoughts About Keeping Rats Away From Cars
The biggest problem with rats finding shelter in cars is that they can cause major electrical-related damage, which can be quite expensive to repair, especially in modern cars. As such, following the above tips will help you keep rats and other rodents away from your cars.
