My truck has been infested with squirrels since the day I bought it.
Whenever you turn on the HVAC system, they start squeaking. If I'm running the heat, they tend to be warm and happy and quiet down. When the AC is on they're mad and loud.
Finally got fed up.

Disconnect the wiring harness & remove the 3 5.5mm (or as I found out 7/32") bolts . (dash yoga required)
