But my LX lives in the city.........
Rodents gnawing on wiring under the hood and in other locations is not uncommon...winter is cold, nests need to be made, and the need for food is ongoing. I've read that a bag of mothballs strategically scattered works but need periodic replacement. Some internet reports show major issues with soybean-based wire insulations...not sure if Toyota uses that insulation. From what I've seen, it looks like Toyota uses a cross-linked polymer insulation not derived from soybeans, but I'm not aware of Toyota confirming their insulation choice.
In my case, my avatar hunts with a couple of buddies...rodents can't get through their defensive lines around the house, and another 3-4 feral cats take care of the barn. Their defensive line works perfectly 24/7/365. We're less than half a mile from the Birds of Prey National Conservation Area so between the cats and eagles, hawks, and owls rodent's don't have a chance.

I installed an optima battery and noticed that my sequoia has a heat shield but the LX does not. As a result, I purchased a battery insulation (foam foil type ) to wrap the battery in the LX
