My M3's in the garage for the winter - I opened the hood yesterday and found some seed hulls and mouse poop under the fusebox! I had placed a couple bags of mothballs in the engine compartment, but apparently didn't put in this spot. I don't think they got any wiring, though. Also no sign of mice in the interior. I cleaned it up, added a bunch more mothball bags, and set a few traps.

So i'd like some comments on my idea of sealing up the car: I was going to get a big 12x20 plastic tarp, roll the car onto it, put my breathable car cover on, and tape the dropcloth up onto the car cover. Is this a good idea? Or do I run the risk of just trapping alot of moisture and causing more harm than good?

Thanks
