Repair & Advice
Cinder block well house is my laundry room. Warm in winter with 220 wall mounted heater invites little guests. Looking at using landscape fabric (1/4 inch mesh) to close off bottom of machine. Have tried electronic rodent deterrents, moth balls (yuck!) and traps. We even wrapped the first replacement with aluminum tape and they chewed through that. Parts Dr had the parts I needed (they actually ate thru two but have left the pump housing alone so far) and shipped quickly. Little bastards (the mice that is).
