I guess 6 months is too long to go before checking the air filter.
Or I need to stop driving through carpet factories on full throttle.

That's from mice overnighting in your air box.

Looks like Scotty accidentally transported a tribble and his son from the USS Enterprise into your air filter box.

That's a really bad situation you have. If the mouse or mice are leaving droppings and I bet they are, this can cause you some serious health problems.
