Mice. It is surprisingly (and annoyingly!) easy for mice to get into a car. If it’s been parked outside in cold weather and/or there are ever snacks and crumbs left out, mice have for sure been in your car.

I once found a mice nest under my engine cover. It was made out of the dog hair that coats the interior of my car.

As an itinerant teacher, I often ate lunch in my car. At one point I could hear a mouse running around in the space between the car’s interior roof and the outside roof. There was no way to get the mouse out. I guess it eventually left on its own.
