This place is starting to creep me the fuck out. Seriously, I'm waiting for the day someone reports locusts coming from the gas tank.

In areas of the country (Arizona) where this is very common, owners routinely leave their hoods propped open at night.

Probably doesn't own the car and ripped off a photo of a Uk/Australian owner, then photoshopped it. Total BS photo.

I strictly said I couldnt get a picture but I have provided an illustration for the people who cannot picture garbage inside the engine.

Anyways, back to the topic at hand. Im' starting to believe its squirrels or cats. Dont really see a lot of mice.

In my case they only had just started chewing through part of the wiring harness. It happened during an ice storm so I don't think there was enough time to round up garbage. But then 2 months later they chewed through the harness in my girlfriend's mom's car.
