Squirrels Vs Wire

Here we have some squirrels that chewed throw a 14/2 lighting circuit from Hi Hat to Hi Hat, of course if it was energized, they would have become toast. But being it was not in use. They had a field day. it's only after my client contacted me and told me that the lights weren't working that i discovered it. I then replaced the wire, put in a new switch for good measure.
