Within a week of getting my new 21 Ranger Lariat I popped the hood and found that something made a nest right on top of my battery. I didn't think much of it but over the months since I was seeing what looked like wet spray marks all throughout the interior. A couple months ago I installed the factory trailer brake controller which wired all the way back into the 3rd brake light and noticed what looked like mouse poop as far back as the bottom of the C pillar. Last week I put a couple mouse traps on my back floorboard (see pics) and have already caught 3 of them. In the pics below you'll also see a clump of material I found in my air cleaner today so I covered the intake with wire mesh.
In other posts, I've read and seen pics about the air intake for the heating/cooling system down through the cabin filter, but no picture shows me clear enough exactly where the air intake(s) are for the interior. Is it underneath the plastic cowl by the wipers? Can anyone please tell me where and how to get to these intake(s) so I can also block them with wire mesh.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
