Why Would a Snake be in Your Car?
While snakes are cold-blooded and will seek refuge in a warm place like a engine compartment or interior of a automobile, there is another factor that plays a larger role. Since 1980 automobile manufacturers have started producing and manufacturing to meet European regulations soy based wire coatings and insulation added to vehicle components. While almost all American automobile manufacturers also have a European market, soy based wire components have been introduced into the US. What does this have to do with snakes being inside your car you may ask? What the soy-based wire coatings, soy-based seat foam, and soy-based carpets do is attract rodents. Over the years there has been a increase in chewed wires in vehicles due to rodents and squirrels. Most newer model cars all will have soy based wire coatings. Many clients that have encountered this problem, also have had it happen more than one time, and it is not a cheap fix. So this relates to snakes, because rodents are what snakes feed on. Body oils that rub off a rodents fur as it enters the undercarriage of vehicles, leaves scent markings that snakes happen to follow right to where that rodent may be hiding.
