If there was a mouse nest in there, you would know it once you turned the
fan on and the coolant was up to temperature. I had some mice in the cab of
one of my farm tractors and it wasn't pleasant - the smell started suddenly
on one day. There was no gradual increase in smell. I fumigated the tractor
cab to prevent any wiring being chewed with the idea that I can clean out
the heater/ac box later this winter.
