For this reason I always recommend, especially if you live in a rural area, you put traps out for the critters. Mice cant resist peanut butter so a spring trap baited with it works a treat. But poison and sticky traps also work good. I recommend all three. Also, check the traps at least weekly and reset if (when) you catch some. If you do catch mice this will alert you to the potential problem and you better take action.

I think it unlikely for this to be a problem for something like a Yaris which is always in use. But if it sits in winter for any length of time....LOOK OUT!

Engine covers for most part are just for cosmetics, hold heat and great place for mice to live I'm running with out one.
