I have completely stripped the chassis of multiple Yaris. That is the only area where critters can enter.

It is not visible unless you remove the plastic wiper cowl. Once you do you can see that they can easily get from under the hood to the wiper tray where they can easily enter the holes in that plastic duct and make their way into the AC system.

That makes sense considering, they would walk along that exact part of the hood.

What about literally getting in the car from under the car ?

They could only get in from under if one of the rubber plugs was missing, but then they would have to be able to climb upside down on the bottom of the car to get to the hole and then chew through both the carpet padding and the carpet itself to get inside.
