    Nangyari na rin sa amin to. I suspected na unang inakyat ang engine compartment (EC) nung nag overnight parking sa basement ng isang hotel (while in roadtrip). After ng trip, syempre carwash at vacuum. Did not bother to check in details those locations sa EC na pwdeng tambayan ng daga. Long story short, inkayat ulit while naka park sa bahay and that delivered the kill bite. TCU tinamaan.

    After that incident, pina engine detail namin para matanggal ang residue ng dumi at ihi ng daga. Then regularly apply pepper-based na rat repellant spray sa lahat ng locations na pwedeng tambayan sa EC and also on all accessible wires, tubes at cables. Smells like those "self defense" pepper spray na mabibili sa Ace Hardware or TrueValue. Irritant na din sa skin. So far it is effective dahil kahit aso sa bahay di na tumatambay malapit sa engine.

    The downside of this solution is, mahirap magservice ng engine compartment na di naka gloves at nka long sleeve ang technician. And we always have to warn them during PMS.

    Sakin nangyari pusa naipit dun sa may malapit sa battery. Mga 1 week ko hindi ginamit yung sasakyan at nung ginamit ko, may nakitang uod na nahuhulog sa may ilalim ng makina.

    Pina check ko sa car wash na pinaka malapit at may pusa na inuuod na! Bigla tuloy ako napa engine wash at buti nawala yung amoy. Binilad ko na lang sa araw yung sasakyan.

    Matagal nang palitan sa pamamahay yung mga daga at pusa sa engine compartment ng 2 Altis ko. Palitan kasi ang pag-gamit ko. So far buti naman wala pa nginangatngat. Pero kinakabahan ako madalas baka sumuot na sa air intake at nginatngat na pala ang air filter. Nung minsan kasi nag-check ako ng eh may punit na. Not sure kung kagat ba ng daga iyon. Baka mamaya eh may ginigiling na palang daga sa loob mismo ng makina. Ewww!

    Nung daga pa ang namamahay, kailangan ko walisan tuwing umaga ng mga dumi ng daga sa engine bay. Nung pumalit ang mga pusa, madalas na madumi at mabalahibo naman ang ibabaw ng makina. Nung minsan pa nga may patay na kuting sa ilalim ng sasakyan pag-atras ko. Di ko alam kung naipit ba ito somewhere sa makina kaya namatay.

    Sa ngayon medyo lie low pareho. More on mga foot prints ng pusa sa ibabaw ng sasakyan pag umaga.

    Sakin madalas pusa, dun kasi sa garahe na nirerentahan ko madami pusa. Kaya bawat gamit ko halos lagi ko binubuksan muna yung hood to check.

    Akala ko walang naapektuhan sa kotse ko, yun pala may naputol nang hose malamang dahil sa ngatngat ng daga. PCV hose yata iyon. Matagal ko nang napapansin na parang medyo bitin yung acceleration pero I was thinking baka spark plug lang. Buti nung nagpa-engine wash ako napansin nung boy na may putol na hose. Sila na rin ang nagpalit.

    Pesteng mga daga yan. Nung Friday walang pasok kaya naisipan ko mag engine wash ng sasakyan. Todo linis pa ako at siniguro na malinis na talaga at wala ng bakas na pinag lungaan ng daga. Pagka gising ko kinabukasan sobrang dumi nung windshield ko, may mga shell ng itlog na maalat, may wrapper ng v-cut. Pagkabukas ko ng bonnet mas malala dahil ang daming plastic sa loob at dumi ng daga. Hindi na talaga ako naniniwala na pag malinis ka sa gamit hindi iipisin o dadagain eh. Sabi ko nga sa mga kasamahan ko sa bahay, pag may nahuling daga dun sa mouse cage trap wag nyo papatayin kasi papahirapan ko muna ng mga 3 araw hanggang unti-unting mamatay. Bwisit talaga kasi kanina pag alis ko ng bahay, nagkalat yung dumi ng daga dun sa garahe tapat ng engine bay. Namamatay ba talaga daga sa Racumin?

    i read somewhere, that if you have mice in your garage, it is because you do not regularly clean the environs.
    perhaps if we clean around the area, there won't be no mice to sleep on the cozy warm engine bay.

    Effective ba talaga pusa kahit sa malalaking daga? Meron na kasi kami mga aso kaya baka di maka survive yung pusa sa amin.
    Yung isa namin aso magaling, may bloodline ng chow chow. Hobby or Attitude nya talaga na hulihin yung mga daga at patayin. Pag nakarinig or nakakita yun ng daga hindi nya talaga titigilan hanggang di nya nahuhuli to the point na halos umiiyak na yung daga sa takot dahil di na makaalis dun sa pwesto nya. Back to question, EFFECTIVE BA TALAGA PUSA KAHIT SA MALALAKING DAGA?

    Kung pwede lang, mag aalaga na lang ako ng Python tapos pakawalan ko sa kisame. Hirap ubusin ng mga daga kahit sabihin mo na linisin mo yung bahay mo, after a week or two meron at meron pa din bumabalik.

    people of tsikoteers hear me hear me.

    Nabasa nyo naman post ko few pages back... ok to be exact page 3 post #25 and #27

    You need to have a relationship sa pusang-gala sa garahe nyo. Feed them. Talk to them. Pag nakitang property nyo yan kotese eh nila yan dudumihan.

    Nangyari lang sa akin yung tinitirhan ng pusa engine bay nung nagsidewalk parking ako sa public place.

    So commune with nature. Mababait pusa. Pag nakita ako pag gabi eh at nadelay lang ako pakainin eh nasa gate yan nagiingay at kinukuskus yung paws nila. Yung mga pusakal ko ngayon nadagdagan pa ulit at yung nadagdag eh siga. Binubully mga oldtimers.

    And I made a post regarding this cat, who made about 16,000 Pesos for this Trailblazer:

The owner can just scratch his head as his vehicle is being towed.

    ...
    The fees are for the following as far as I remember: towing service, serpentine belt, and idler pulley. This does not include lost time, salary for the day, and other things.

    it's hard to keep these in mind, once i see another addition to my collection of paint claw marks.

    ma-utak ang pusa dito.
    sa mataas sila tumatambay, para kita nila ang nasa baba, at madaling mag-pounce on 'em.
