Squirrels - 1 / Tundra - 0

So this crap happened while I was at work yesterday.
Ended the day with more than a couple "F" bombs as you can imagine.
Needed a tow


Because of this!

 

Dude! That sucks! Hopefully its not too expensive to fix.

 

Damn!...I am sorry to see this.

I got some of this. Trying to be proactive.

Holy sh*t! Fkn tree rats!! Yeah, hope it's not a expensive fix for you, I always worry about that sh*t with mice etc.

 

Holy Sh!t!!! That sucks.

Also welcome from Sherwood.

 

How do you fix that???

 

I'll have to get me some of this and give it a try!
Hope it works.

 

Sounds like they have to replace the wiring harness.
I should here something tomorrow about how much this is gonna cost.

 

Sorry to see your harness look like that...damn democratic rats. It’s the soy based insulation that those little bast***s love.

 

Ouch!!!!!!! That’s always a nightmare of mine, especially out where I live. They’re everywhere.

 

Damn sorry to see this, Had some damage to my previous tundra, only not as bad, just one wire and a nest in the cabin filter.

 

Gonna guess $3300 for the fix. Not sure how that spray that the above poster put up works. I’ve used a pepper gel caulking made especially for rodents with great success. Doesn’t kill, but presents a nuisance situation for the animal and it is also inadvertantly carried back to their nest which presents the others with the same problem. They eventually move out of the neighborhood. About $10 a tube. Applied with caulk gun and lasts a long time as long as its not in rain.

 

I also put this out year round with emphasis during the fall and winter, all around my place, works pretty good.

worked for me when I had rodents issues

 

Dude, that sucks! Sorry to see your truck on the back of a wrecker! Try this.

 

Ouch! No bueno amigo! Sorry that happened

 

A .22 caliber rifle.

 

Yeah, if this was around my house I would eradicate these pesky critters.
but it's at my work in an industrial complex.

 

Lol they are probably used to loud sounds. Pellet gun?

 

Same thing happened to my 2000. My man replaced the wiring harness hisself. Worked great for the first 12 hours. And wouldn't you know they did it again the next night. Damn squirrels. He had to re-solder every wire again but we still have a few issues. There must be a crossed wire somewhere.

He also put in this deterrent. Its worked so far.

 

Damn that sucks!

 

That sucks some fucks!!!

Few years ago my old man had a squirrel take a ride on the serpentine belt on the extra car he keeps outside. Texted me a picture, destroyed the belt, engine bay looked like that squirrel strapped a quarter stick of dynamite to his belly and screamed Allahu Akbar!!!!!!!

 

Suppressed .22 loads of fun on critters

 

Had the same thing happen on my 16 tundra. Chewed through about 12 wires going into my abs module. Made a claim on my insurance it was a 3k part for the wiring harness and another 1800 in labor. Mine still ran but every warning light was on and I lost traction control, abs, and the speedo.

 

the visual i got from that.... I'm dying over here thank you for making my day (night really)

 

That blows fucking monkey balls. I would definitely file a claim with my insurance. Hope it's fixed quick!
