    It sounds like he got a hearty meal. That should take care of it. You’ll probably need to keep replenishing it for ongoing protection. Maybe wrap a wire around the bait blocks to keep them in place and not make too much of a mess in your engine.

    I’m “hoping” my wife is correct in her assumption that the critter came with me from recent trip to TN. But good idea on strapping down the bait blocks. Maybe that an the newly added electronic device will remedy the issue.

    I wouldn't put anymore bait under the hood. That would tend to attract them to the area, right?

    Best to just have the electronic deterrent, IMO.
