Aksnoopy:It happened to me few years ago. The car was parked for a couple of weeks till I was ready to fix it. What saved me was that a stray cat moved into the engine compartment eating them. It was when I opened the bonnet one day and the cat jumped out that I realised why I was seeing blood and eaten up rat parts on the engine earlier. 7 Likes |

I Googled the same issue and one of the solutions worked for me. Sprinkle black pepper around the engine and it works to deter or keep them off the engine. Black pepper is available in supermarkets like ShopRite. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Huge problem. Could lead to an engine bay fire in the right circumstances. Nothing beats prevention. Rodents are creatures of habit. Once they lock on it is hard to stop. 1 Like |

Tango123: Those solid, whitish and queasy scenting things you normally see in urinals and wash basins of public rest rooms to keep roaches coming up through the drains. Also known as 'camphor" in those days at school You place them in your luggage and locker to prevent your stuff turning to dust by vermins. 1 Like 1 Share |

Use camphor balls. The rats are attracted by the warm environment of your engine, but the camphor will drive them away because it is poisonous for them. rubyjan: |
