Choose your poison. LOL. Seriously, I store our 5er in a building that houses other RV's, boats, autos, soybeans and not sure what else after I drop it off for the winter. I cracked the roof vents a smidge once and ended up w/ a lot of dust inside next spring.
Prior to storage, we clean the inside well. Place drier sheets all over. Hang moth cakes (approx 7-9 of 'em) throughout coach. Put charcoal in 3-4 pans to absorb moisture (roof vents closed). Last year, I tried something additional a RV supply place was selling that's supposed to keep mice out (similar to the peppermint oil).. No mice! Even put drier sheets in lower storage areas. Prior to the additional mouse deterrent, come spring, the inside did smell like moth cakes. Open windows and let air out for a couple days, no more oder or just a small trace of it.
