Well, surprise this morning. I found some mouse droppings yesterday, set trap on floor under the steering wheel, caught the little guy. Has anyone had mice in motor home . Don't. Know how he got in or if there are more. I reset two more traps just in case.

Shutting off your heat/ac in the coach before you shut the engine off so all the vents close helps to keep them out.

We had one running around in the van while camping in Canyonlands NP. But I think when he saw how small it was inside, he got claustrophobic and left.

If you want a reality check, drive it north in the dead of winter and feel where all the cold drafts are coming in. We did this with my parents motorhome, which allowed us to seal all the holes we could find with spray foam. This is normal for modern motorhomes.

We had one. Discovered the back wall in the cabinet next to the bed (the table part) was not fastened and it got in thru there. When I moved that wall out I could see the motor and the ground. It traveled from there up to the cables for the back up camera. Two cats in the rig, neither thought to CATCH the mouse....LOL Saw it in the driver's seat area one night. Yeah, I freaked.

I spray my garage with "Critter Out" and keep peppermint scented packs inside the coach. Also keep several self sealing traps set for peace of mind. We never catch a mouse or see signs of them. The scented pouches are available at a feed store and the "Critter Out" is bought online. This is a non solicited endorsement of the products named because they work for me. I have no affiliation with the companies or the sellers.
