Rodents not only love cars, but they love to nest in air condition units and duct works.

A good way to keep those teeth sharp is to gnaw on wires under a car's hood. Rodents have teeth that need constant sharpening. While cars that are driven less often make prime candidates for a nest, even those vehicles used every day are not safe from a rodent nest. What better place than under the hood of a car?
