Caught a bl@@dy rat trying to make my engine bay his new home. He's been storing food amongst the cables behind the battery, presumably in preparation of moving in. There wasn't much there so likely he started this morning. Put a load of vinegar and garlic powder along the fence line where he was coming in, hopefully he'll look for somewhere else now. Neighbours are a bit messy with their rubbish and are also probably leaving food out (they certainly used to for Mr Foxy). Will have to speak to them and get them to stop.
