How to Prevent Rats From Chewing Your Car Wires
Rats are an adaptive species and are often unwelcome. Despite personal feelings, rats are essential to local ecosystems. That said, wildlife control in Okanagan often gets reports of damaged vehicle wiring and infestations in cars. The presence of rodents in automobiles seems troubling and strange to many owners, but the same things that attract rats to a home can attract them to a car. The problem is damages in cars usually add up much faster than damage to garages or other manufactured spaces. Wiring damage is one of the most common problems with rats living around or in cars.
