Well the dealer phoned today....I require a new fuel tank as the mice chewed an 1" hole in my fuel tank. So 1 new fuel tank at £495 including vat and fitting Crying or Very sad caught 11 mice now.

I guess pet insurance won't cover it? My heartfelt condolences Sad Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

We had a mice problem when we lived in London (filthy neighbours downstairs), however we couldn't use poison because of our parrots (very sensitive to that stuff).

Apparently essential oil of peppermint drives the things away. Worked wonders. Plus the house smelled like a sweet shop.

Had exactly the same problem in London. They even named the bloody thing. Needless to say it didn't draw it's mousey pension.

Gotcha!
Here's the little fekker that destroyed a carpet, ate the ends off 6 bars of white lemon and chili chocolate and kept me awake for 5 nights... As you can see, the white chocolate and peanut butter bait worked!

Your probably covered on your household insurance if you have full cover.

Worth a look.

I'm not surprised it kept you awake for five nights after it had eaten some lemon and chili chocolate, was it spewing it's ring up? I reckon it probably decided to commit suicide after several red-hot dumps. Poor thing.

I keep my Puma safe on the drive - it's already so bloody cold here the little beggars won't set foot in the open... Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
