Trials and Tribulations of Rural Living

[Hummer]

That looks familiar. I've had mice get into the engine air filter housing and ac/heating ducts on several vehicles. Last month my neighbor found the entire engine compartment of his RV had been completely filled with pack rat nesting material.

I've long thought that it should be required that all autos have mouse proof air intake and ac/heater ducts. It wouldn't be that difficult. Rodents probably cost hundreds of $millions in damage to autos every year. The risk of hantavirus in a car air ducts is very serious.
