If a mouse gets into the car, you can drive it out. Relevant measures: 1. Effective methods: Park the car as far away as possible from areas where mice are active, such as garbage dumps, ditches, or grassy areas; Regularly inspect and clean the car to check for signs of mouse activity and ensure the car's cleanliness; Examine the integrity of the car's air conditioning and ventilation parts, as mice often enter the car through these areas. 2. Maintain cleanliness: Avoid leaving food residues in the car, frequently open windows for ventilation, and ensure doors and windows are closed when leaving the car; Install an electronic rodent repellent in the car to use ultrasonic waves to drive away mice; You can place some rodent-proof bags in hidden locations inside the car; Install rodent-proof nets on parts of the car that are prone to mouse entry; Set up protective barriers around the car.

I always make it a habit to prevent such incidents. I never leave food residues in the car, and even snack bags are promptly cleaned up because mice are most attracted by smells. When parking, choose clean spots, avoiding garbage piles or grassy areas. It's best to park in a garage or on hard surfaces to reduce the chances of mice getting in. You can place some natural rodent repellents in the car, like small bags of peppermint oil hung on the rearview mirror or in the corners of the engine compartment—safe and harmless to the car. Regularly check the door seals and gaps under the chassis. If you find any looseness or damage, repair them quickly with tape or professional sealant. When the weather gets colder, be extra cautious, as mice prefer warm places, and the engine compartment is a hotspot. Before driving, quickly lift the hood for a quick check. After adopting these habits, I’ve rarely encountered mouse invasions—peace of mind and safety guaranteed.

How to Remove Iron Particles?

After iron particles accumulate on the vehicle, it is necessary to take it to a professional car wash for cleaning. Below is relevant information about automotive iron particles: 1. Causes of formation: When driving, the vehicle body generates static electricity that attracts particulate matter from the air, including iron particles. Parking near construction sites or factories can also lead to iron particle accumulation. Additionally, iron particles are produced from brake disc wear during braking. Japanese cars directly discharge iron particles into the air. These particles are also easily attracted to the car paint while driving. 2. Hazards of iron particles: Iron particles on the paint surface will adhere to the car's surface as moisture evaporates. Once oxidized, they turn into yellowish-brown rust spots. The iron particles will continuously spread and oxidize the surrounding paint, eventually penetrating the topcoat and oxidizing the underlying metal. Alternatively, high speeds or engine heat can soften the paint, allowing the particles to embed themselves. Once iron particles fuse with the paint, the damage progresses from the surface inward, gradually causing the paint to lose its luster, discolor, and form "psoriasis-like" blemishes. The paint may deteriorate, making maintenance extremely difficult. In severe cases, the paint may peel or flake off, becoming irreparable.
