Got an animal living under hood

So I discovered that my installation on my wheel wells and fire wall have been eaten. I live in the woods so there chipmunks , Squirrels mouses whatever . I just bought rat poison put it under the hood like a couple weeks ago now I noticed some foum on my passenger side floor. Not sure what to do here I need to remove all the eating stuff from under the hood don't know if it easy or not just sucks.

If you left your air mode on 'Fresh' or 'Outside'
air, it opens a little door from your engine bay to your cabin, they'll nest on top of your cabin air filter.
Check that and be sure to leave it on 'Recirculate' mode.
You might want to wear gloves and a dust mask when you drop them, they can get nasty.

I also live in the woods and have had a heck of a time getting them out of my cars. I've tried all sorts of poison and traps and it slows them down but they come back. Its an awful thing to have to deal with.
