    May not be bugs but rather, brush or other debris that you may have collected on the exhaust especially if you've taking your Renegade off road. I would check there.

    So im guessing a rat got into my car at the shop after i had them service my tranny. Because there is signs that he was living under the big plastic And on top of the aluminum bed under my hood. Doesnt appear to be too mich damage other than the ten pounds of actual shit on the aluminum which is causing the smell. What should i do? Take to shop? Clean myself if so am i going to damage it? What can i clean it with. Can believe im breathing shit. Life.
