What the hell is this??

[Minuteman3]

Just opened my hood and found this mess ...

Can't remember the last time I checked under the hood, but probably only a few days!! I refilled the washer fluid about a week ago and did not see this!!

Any idea how to kill/prevent what ever is doing this?

Squirrel or rat, judging by the size of the claw/teeth marks.
Squirrel...trap or shoot.
Rat....get the little green poison blocks and coat them with peanut butter and place around entry points or around the truck, and anywhere they might be living (wood/brush pile, around the garage, etc). Rat traps with the little metal pan/trigger (aka--the four way trigger)--coat the pan with peanut butter and smear some on the underside of the pan too....this is what gets them.

Here in the People's Republic of Washington there's no way I could try to shoot this thing!! I'd end up in jail!!

Good idea about the rat poison. On my way to Lowe's .... !!

Thanks!!

son of a beach! at first i thought the cover had melted but no. rich is correct, something clawed and gnawed that cover!

check around the truck every place. id bet that is not the only thing they damaged. they like the wiring and conduits.

Gods way of saying "If you're going to spend $150 on a stupid Styrofoam engine cover that squirrels like to eat, spend $200 on aluminum."

Check the cabin filter, probably been in there. Wonder where all the foam went?

I had a nice hunting camp in Madison, Florida and I put up a Deerstand and I put a nice boat cushion seat on it. I came out the following week and there was buzzards buzzards buzzards perched on it and I went over and climbed up there and looked and they took all the foam out of my boat seat. .

Please don't use poison as this is often what kills collaterally, wildlife. The body of poisoned animals kill birds, house pets when they find these carcasses.

Kill them softly with harsh language, instead
