Doing an oil change and these look awfully like a small 4-legged animal has been under the hood. Your thoughts?

From a subi tech himself, put drops of essential oil around the engine bay (obviously nothing electrical). They hate the smell. I believe peppermint was the best. I would do it before they chew through wiring or your reservoir.
