mice make nests out of dryer sheets, poison bait traps are the only answer.

Thats a nice house. Any more pics of the car in your garage?

I use a CarCapsule brand car cover that you drive in and zip up and then it inflates. I have a mouse problem in my garage but have never had any get inside the "bubble".

I use the same and never have a problem.

Glue Traps with a touch of wonderful peanut butter and that is all you need.

If you think that is bad, you have never met a "Banana Rat" before.

They are really more like nutrias or small to medium sized beavers. I think technically they are called hutias.
Apparently they love the taste of brake fluid, electrical wire insulation, PVC tape, plastics, etc.
They will eat through your brake lines and electrical wiring harnesses.

This is what I use. Works good. Unfortunately the Chicago area is the rodent capital of the US. In the winter months they will chew through anything they can find.

We have cats, no mice ever.

I'm guessing that's a mouse motor.

News Flash! Rodents can access more ways than a clear engine cover can ever prevent.

I heard they even got some two legged rats up in Chicago. No proof, probably just hearsay.

Finally something Shitcago has to be proud of!

That poor rat in the picture looks kinda sickly. Somebody needs to get something good to eat.

My friend lives in a very rural part of eastern Oregon. His car (not a Corvette) is always parked outside He went for a drive and heard some really weird thumping noises from the engine bay, not relative to engine speed.
He stopped and lifted the hood, a rabbit was sitting on top of the battery. He (the rabbit) quickly made an escape. No more noises.

First time I took my engine cover off my 2020, there was a dead rat very similar to the one in the picture. Now have more traps setup in my garage. Living in rural areas, this is a bigger problem than for those living in the city. Cleaning the intake manifold after rat removal was no fun. Fortunately, it didn't do any damage. Nobody thinks the clear cover will keep anything out of the engine compartment, but being able to keep an eye on things will help. I'm a gear head, and not being able to open a hood and see your engine takes some getting used to. The black engine cover is easily removed, but the clear cover would be more convenient.

Exactly at least you can see if things are amiss in there before something really bad happens.

Has anybody heard if Scrape Armor has rodent protection screens under development for the C8 ? I will be looking for it to be an RPO (rodent protection option) sometime in the future !
Of course, I expect GM will say it's not necessary because rodent damage and dead rats are purely cosmetic !

Someone needs more cats.....
