If you knowingly or unknowingly provide the warmth, moisture and nutrients that bacteria need, they will surely grow.
A tiny bacterium invisible can produce 17 million offspring in just 12 hours. That is 1.70 crore in half a day.
Foods that can spoil quickly are safe for just 2 hours at temperatures below 32 degrees Celsius if not refrigerated.
That is, if the temperature is 32 degrees Celsius or higher, it is safe for just 1 hour. This is the main reason why food items should not be left in the car.
Food poisoning can be a side effect caused by the spread of bacteria.

Another reason not to leave food items in the car is rats. Rats are one of the most dangerous animals for cars. Mice can also be said to be enemies of cars.
Many people do not realize that the food items lying in the car will welcome the rats as invited guests.
If rats get into cars, they can damage various parts such as wires, seats, AC, engine. There may be situations where you have to spend huge sums to fix them.
There are numerous ways for rats to get into cars. So if you want to protect your car from rats, do not leave foods in the cabin.
