any mice during storage?
We currently have a Winnebago Class A. We farm for a living and store the RV on farm. We have not had mice in our class A for any of the 3 years we've owned it. Now either the Class A is sealed up...

The mice had decided to store their stash of corn and packed it solidly inside every orifice inside my generator with corn!
The corn pictured on the ground was all from inside my gen in the filter,etc.
This year we had a problem with one or more rats (not mice, the poops were too big for mice) living under the hood of the Jamboree. After the vehicle sat for many months I finally opened the hood and found the engine compartment stuffed with leaves nibbled off a nearby hedge. The leaves were fresh, so the rat had been working not long before I discovered him. The entire air intake was stuffed with leaves, I had to dismantle it to clean it out.
After cleaning up as best I could (the steel crossmember in the foreground of the pic is still stuffed with leaves, I can't figure out how to get them out), I came back the next day and the intake was once again stuffed with leaves. The rat must have worked all night (I assume a single rat because I have never ever seen rats cooperate).
I cleaned it up again and moved the vehicle away from the hedge, and that brought me some peace for a while.
So this weekend I opened the hood and found this: the intake was once again stuffed with leaves, but the rat had also collected gravel and stuffed the last couple inches of the intake with rocks, and also left some rocks elsewhere under the hood. Boy, that must have been hard work, carrying each rock in his teeth while climbing up into the engine.
I simply can't imagine why he did it.
