How are the mice getting in? Maybe we should change the combination.

There’s probably a floor drain somewhere. I don’t know what would have changed.
May 27, 2023 at 12:09 PM #18228Mario MirallesGeneral MemberWas everything taken out of the container? If not, you could simply have a family (growing) of mice nesting in their…..

May 28, 2023 at 7:31 AM #18243Tim WardGeneral MemberI think they’d need access to either green stuff or water.
I’m not going to move everything out. Maybe Luke can organize that.
Again, I don’t mind helping from time to time, but I’m not taking on a project that size.May 31, 2023 at 7:37 PM #18264Tim WardGeneral MemberNo mice caught for several days now.

I arrived to AJX at 3 pm today for a late afternoon flight and I found glider containers 2, 3, and 4 were wide open with no one around. I closed them all and took another quick look in container 2. There is so much stuff on the ground left by pilots which some of was or is being used for nesting. I also saw nut shells which means that the mice could have had food. I don’t think this should be Tim’s job to clean up.
I would seriously consider going through and cleaning off the mouse shit and pee on your equipment if you have it in container 2.
Btw, I loved the stenciled signs on the containers. Thanks to whoever did that.June 5, 2023 at 1:37 PM #18292Tim WardGeneral MemberThat was Dusty Rhodes. A clever visual reminder. But it seems to have fallen on, to mix metaphors, deaf ears.
