[VanCecilia]

Solutions for mice frequently entering the engine compartment: 1. Regularly clean the engine to avoid attracting mice; 2. Use substances like mothballs to repel mice with their odor; 3. After repelling the mice, use a car protective net to cover the chassis to prevent mice from re-entering the engine compartment. Reasons why the engine compartment attracts mice: 1. The car is parked near garbage bins or ditches, which are areas with frequent mouse activity and are particularly attractive to mice; 2. Mice scavenge for food and enter the engine compartment to feast; 3. When outside temperatures are low, the warm engine compartment provides a cozy spot for mice to seek warmth.
