I started working on a Chevy panel truck and am in the process of removing the body. I found a mouse trap inside the boxed section of the frame rail! There wasnt a mouse in it, but a mouse must have dragged it up in there. The trap is in good shape and I will put it to use
I've come across MANY a ambitious Mouse! Sometimes their ambitious nature really gets them into trouble (dead)!

The worst thing i ever saw in this regard, was a bunch of dead mice in an engines combustion chamber. Now imagine the effort it took to get into an exhaust system, then crawl up into and through an open exhaust valve and then hang out inside a cylinder bore. These images i saw was of a guy who removed cylinder heads to see this mess of dead mice in there. They were obviously all dead but imagine trying to start an engine after this vermin got in there. This is a key reason why you should always plug up your exhaust pipe during storage. They are looking for warmer places over the winter, so plug up your hole or holes on your car.
