Thumbs Up - first port of call remove the bonnet sound proofing as you may be in for a surprise, just have your four legged friend on standby Shocked although I doubt the stowaway is still in hiding, they usually jump ship when the sun shines and return when it gets frosty.
 It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

A nice python - or even an Inland Taipan will sort that problem for you.

We have some Moonlake ears like that too, but only when we're hunting!

I'd put a poison bait box under the car.

I heard on the radio the other day the RSPCA are having issues with loads of Boa Constrictors being abandoned.

perhaps we have a use for all these spare snakes ?

Many years ago I had a bmw m3 parked up and unused for months. When I finally tried to move it every warning light possible on the dash came on. Headlight bulbs, indicators out, brake lights the full shabang. You wouldn’t believe the mess under the bonnet. Mice or rats had chewed all wires and hoses and pretty much anything else that wasn’t metal.
