Dutchman did an EXCELLENT job of showing you how winterizing is done!! Look for your water heater bypass and follow Dutch's instructions, you can't miss!
As for the mice, we use dryer sheets, a whole box (small) strewn ALL over the interior of our coach. We have stored ours in a pole barn as well, I get some D Con boxes and place them around the outside on the floor of the trailer. So far NO mice doing it that way.
Good luck winterizing, if you can get somebody in the know to give you a hand, there won't be any surprises next spring then.

Dryer sheets do nothing more than give the mice something to build a nest with. If you don't have a mouse problem they work fine.....The ONLY way to deal with mice is to seal any openings they can in through, set traps, use poison or get a cat. Only sure fire ways to eliminate them. Period.
