Hello! A few random things I found via this forum and trial and error.Ugh, f@ck!n' chipmunks!
They're eating my fancy battery blanket (which I was thrilled to see that I actually had on a '22).
The little sh!ts also nearly ate through the ground wire of my battery tender. I can see their little teeth marks on the insulation. BAH!
I cranked the air gun up to 110 psi and blew out all the friggin' nut shells, and blasted under the engine cover. They probably retreated to the air box thing, I need to check that out ... =(
1. Those pests do not like peppermint. So I mixed some peppermint essential oils and warm water and sprayed it around the areas I noticed they liked to mess with. (Moth balls did not work and just made the truck smell)
2. There is a area under the windshield that they build nests that was mentioned previously in this thread. They could be making nests in there and shoving stuff into the cabin air filter. I found some gutter mesh and JB Weld/self tappers to cover the areas they could get into.
Just some tips I’ve sound so far!
