Selenium Wire saves captured requests in temp. It will periodically clear them out itself or you can do it manually in your code with del requests. To restrict what gets stored see "Limiting Request Capture" in the README. You can also switch to memory only storage if using the disk is a problem - see "In-Memory storage" in the README.

It stores too much for periodic clearings. After two weeks of webscraping I have 5.6 GBs with 406k files. That wouldn't be much problem is for some reason it wasn't lying in AppData and slowing boot times of Windows machines by a lot.
