Jeff, what do you mean by Fabric Softener Sheets. Do you mean a sheet of plastic with Fabric Softener poured on it or is this some form of local product that is available? We have problems with mice down this way too. A friend of mine with a Vari-Eze found a mouse in his aircraft one day. They get in through the elevator actuator opening on the canard. Very easy as the Eze is parked with its nose on the ground. I suggested to him to take it out on the tarmac and start then engine. The mouse should clear out pretty quickly. We did that and within 5 seconds of engine start the mouse flew out of the opening at the canard and ran across the tarmac. He didn't make it. A magpie swooped down and that was lunch. At least he wasn't wasted! Regards Brian Garrett 5 O'Donnell St Viewbank 3084 Australia (613) 9459 1779 Sonerai II VH-JGB 415C VH-???
