Just went through this thread with great amusement.
I had similar experiences with mice and squirrels when I left my Pathfinder in the garage for a month when we went south for a vacation.
Like you, I didn't notice right away that there was a nest under the hood. When I looked, they had ripped apart (shredded) the hood liner to make the nest, as well as setting up shop in the engine air intake box. Thankfully they didn't get under the dash or in the cabin filter area.
I check regularly now, and have had return visits on several occasions. I set up snap traps in the garage and catch mice on a regular basis.
What makes it worse is that I don't live in the country. I'm in a suburb, five minutes away from a Walmart and Costco. Rodents are everywhere now.
