Help, please! Last week when my 2005 Prius went in for 3.7k service and the service manager raised the hood, out came two handsful of animal turds. Suspecting a squirrel, I installed two ZipLoc bags, perforated nicely, filled with mothballs under the hood, one behind each headlight assembly, plus several single mothballs taped in depressions above the radiator section.
Checking daily, I found no turds for a week, but then this morning two samples plus some suspicious liquid.
What the hell to do? The dealer/service manager suggested that the Prius must have some easy access underneath and that engine residual warmth must attract these cute but pesky critters, and worse that they often exhibit a taste for electrical wiring, etc.
Anybody else have this problem? What to do? Please!!
