Wrapping your wiring harness in capsaicin tape works pretty well. Unfortunately, this is a discovery I made after multiple annoying and expensive repairs.

Yeah, I went with spray and a monthly reminder to stalk the entire premises for The Enemy, but same idea.

Chickens ate our environmentally friendly AC line insulator wrap. They won’t touch the cheap gray stuff, at least not after I wrapped it in foil tape.

(They can’t taste capsaicin, though now that I know that exists, I’ll pick some up for other projects!)
