Default Fabric Softener sheet for mice

I have eliminated mice in my Marfa (Texas) hangar and gliders:

1. Strictly NO eating food in my hangar - you can dine at my nice
picnic area outside.
2. No food or water bottles left in the cockpits overnight.
3. No "crumbly" food like granola bars. Powerbars, fruit OK in the
cockpit.
4. No Gatorade or soda in the cockpit, both very corrosive. Water is
always best.
5. "Bounce" brand sheets - 5 scattered in each cockpit. Renew often.
6. Take out the garbage every day.
7. Vacuum cockpits often.
8. Play my sixties era Rickenbacker guitars, or a loud drum solo on my
vintage Ludwig drum kit. Everything (and everyone) leaves the hangar,
and then I can enjoy my west Texas sunsets alone.
