Rodents can cause thousands of dollars in damage to your car

Springtime brings mice and squirrels into cars as they look for a place to stay on cool nights.

If you thought finding loose change, old napkins and stale French fries under the seat of your car was a problem, then you haven't experienced finding a mouse, chipmunk or other rodent inside your car.

Worse, sometimes it’s the smallest critters that weigh only a few ounces that do the most damage.

Sonja Detrinidad said rodents got to her Prius first.

"Look at this gigantic stash of seeds and such right next to the wiring," she said in a video she posted.

The damage was so bad that her insurance company considered the car totaled. Now, the critters have taken over her truck.
