Here is the part that has me scratching my head: Geofrey tells me that the techs found feces and bits of fruit, etc inside the engine bay on the lower plastic shield.
Seems some rodent(s) have made a comfy little home in my engine bay complete with provisions and a bathroom !!
As seen in the drone pic below, my home is perched between the filthy intra-coastal waterway and the ocean. We have always seen huge beautifully colored iguanas and the rare raccoon from time to time, but never seen actual rodents. If my 4 dogs are outside, we see nothing as whatever might try to enter my yard becomes high speed target practice. I reckon warf rats from the waterway is most likely.
I am considering leaving the dogs outside overnight, but I hate to prevent them from using the cushy beds and furniture they have been used to, and I really don't want them eating rodents after we go to the trouble of fixing nice balanced meals for them.
My question is this: Should I place poison or maybe traps in my engine bay? Wouldn't that cause a danger to the free running cats that frequent my neighborhood late at night?
Has anyone else had this issues? and if so, what is the remedy?
