Is there any movement of air in this garage ?? any venting would help / I think "cracking" the windows a bit / opening (tilt) the sunroof...I have always spread a box of mothballs (the REAL smelly kind) around the engine compartment / in the exhaust pipe outlet (just one, rested in the chrome tip end) and on top of the wheels, under the car...this always has kept the rodents away.if you are bold, put a few in the interior too , and in the air intaske for the HVAC...Just remember to REMOVE them ALL before next fall statt-up...bad smell for a bit is better than a mouse or squirrel eaten interior ... or engine compartment wiring !!
I did this in New England (winter cold, not hot) for years, now use same tactics for summer in FLA / so far, so good..
