Can Fastrac keep rats from gnawing my car's electrical wires?

I have already had to replace the wiring for my car, and the rats have gone back to gnawing, as evidenced by new droppings. With what may I coat the wires? Does it actually work? For the record, we placed one of the feeding stations, loaded with poison blocks, under the car in an effort to deter them. It doesn't seem to be working.

Answer:

To protect individual vehicles you may want to consider using T-Rex snap traps beneath the vehicle and resting on the vehicle tires overnight. Tamper-resistant rodent bait stations loaded with bait such as Fastrac Blox will help reduce the level of mice and rats if there are more on the property to a more manageable level. These products can be purchased together in our Rodent Kits: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/rodent-kits-c-21_405.html. We do also have rodent repellents which you could use around the area where a vehicle is parked to help deter rodents from this areas. Rat Magic is a granule repellent that could be spread easily around the area (do not use indoors such as in a garage).
