Living in a rural part of San Jose, California, you get to enjoy some beautiful nature, but it comes with a price. Rodents were getting into my cars to hide from predators and get out of the weather. They'd eat, sleep, and chew on things to keep their teeth from growing too long, including car wiring.  Occasionally I would find food, nesting remnants and Rodent waste but since it was under the hood I didnt pay much attention to it.  Then it got costly.

The missing insulation from my truck was annoying but the cut wires in my BMW cost me $25,000 in wire harness repairs.  Other cars I own were also damaged but not to this level.  Overall I paid my mechanic more than $30,000 to fix rodent damage. (The average repair for a single car runs about $2,500.) I tried everything: mothballs, predator sprays, noise makers, strobe lights, Irish Spring flakes, even dryer sheets. Don't waste your time and money as I did. They didn't work. So I stopped looking for something to chase them away and decided to take away their hiding place instead.  Rodents including squirrels, and chipmunks dont go into your car to eat it.  They get under it to hide from predators and while there find nice protected spaces to survive.  That's where CoverSeal comes in. It's a product born out of necessity. I designed a car cover that seals to the ground, with a flexible, weighted edge that closes off the space underneath. It's a simple fix, with no fans or desiccant packs to deal with. It doesn't harm the rodents, and it doesn't harm your car.
