Ok, so I'm into high end audio, even my computer speakers are Klipsch, which happen to be what I'm talking about now. I have the 5.1 promedias, the ones with a combination subwoofer/ampbox large enough to conceal a dead toddler. There's a narrow vent along the bottom back, and now there's a fuck*ng mouse in it.
It was like a movie, I watched the little fucker skitter along my polished hardwood floor, under my feet, and straight to the back of my sub, where he skittered inside.
My speakers lightly popped once but otherwise seemed unaffected. I have since been trying to drive him out with the bass cranked to 11, after downloading things like "Illegal Outlaw Bass 4: Booty Shake Bass" and shaking the foundation of my house with it. So far this hasn't worked. I don't want the little bastard gnawing on wires, shitting/pissing, or dying in there.
Anyone got any tips? I really don't want to have to open this shit up. Also, skitter is a great word.

I'm gonna have lock the sub in a closet so my cat doesn't sit on it yowling constantly for the next 48 hours if I want to have any hope of the little effer crawling out.
Also, you need to post this in SE++; I forsee many jokes.
however big the amp is the hole i usually just a tiny bit smaller, so you will probably have a 1 sq ft cutout, so make sure you actually catch it or something..
seriously sub woofers are extremely simple pieces of electronics assembly wise, just take the back off with a philips screwdriver and you dont even have to disconnect all TWO wires that are connected from the sub to the amp.
don't be tempted to poison it though... it will go in there to die...we had one die in the radiator on the back of the fridge... not a pleasant sight
mice are curious creatures, if you move the sub somewhere new, especially somewhere it might suddenly smell something new and interesting (ie your PB trap) , or see something new... it may well come out to investigate.
also, if your sub is in any way in the middle of the room, it might not come out for fear of being hurt... they like to run along the edges of rooms apparently.
Yes but it is on the other end of the range, one the sub cannot make. You can buy units that plug into a regular outlet and drive mice away.
Sure, just take a 12 gauge and blow the little bastard's head off; that will fix all your mice problems.
The trap is the most humane way to do it, though, and even then it's a gamble.
You should set some traps out, some with peanut butter (they like to grab it and run) and some with cheese, and then open up the sub and scare it out some how.
Alternatively, you can just take the whole thing to a park, open it up, let it go, and be done with it without having to kill the mouse.
Then scream out, "ARMAGEDDON!"
:shock:
I'M A TWITTER SHITTER
I think maybe he likes the vibrations. Kinda like a massage chair, but for rodents. So have you managed to shake him out of there, or is the speaker housing defeating your efforts?

I will send you songs with enough bass to do it.
