We put mothballs in our combine once we have cleaned her out after harvest, seems to keep Rats and mice out. Amazed we could still buy mothballs from the Internet so we bought enough for several years(only pop three or four inside combine). We don't tell the grain assurance assessor!. If your ale tastes a bit weird at some time it could be down to us!.
That's what we do. Chuck a couple around the cab and under the electrcs. Never had success putting them anywhere other than in the cab. Mothball smell the whoe of harvest :depressed:
