The only problem with moth balls is when you run the air it pulls the smell into the cab sometimes. We were told to pour hot sauce on the wires. But then we gave up and went and got the rat poision from home Depot. Took the cheap plastic containers with the lids that you can buy. Attached it upside down on a chunk of 2x 4 by putting a screw through the lid into the wood, after cutting a small hole in the side of the container. Placed the tray of bait inside. We slide it under the car when we are parked you just have to remember to slide it out and put up by the house when you drive the car or someone (probably your spouse) will run it over.

Hard lesson after replacing the wire harness on our Honda.
