What about my response was ironic?Oh the irony…
Rats chew on wires, that's a given, and in recent years Toyota began using a soy based insulator for their wiring looms. I'm not going to state that there is a causal relationship here as I'm not a rat and can't speak to their taste preferences.
Some speculate rodents are attracted to specific frequencies some wires emit regardless of the products used in manufacturing.
Perhaps you can share some insight here?
