One of my relatives has 2 adult daughters and they bove have a new Ford Focus and both cars refused to start recently. The AA man found that both cars had had their fuel pipes chewed through by rodents :shock: The cars are still on warrenty and Ford say they will revert back to what pipes they used to fit :? the mind boggles as to what the material they are using is so fascinating to rodents.

Similarly, they rodents are well known for eating their way through mains electric cables,
which is rather inconvenient for the householders and very fatal for said furry creatures.


:) At least, here in the UK we don't have to contend with red back spiders, rattlesnakes or mosquitoes.....
