- Mile_HighExplorerWe store ours in a garage with dirt floors and we have used these Decon blocks around the perimeter of the garage.
Decon blocks
We see dead mice in there every once in a while, but in 7 years we haven't had one in the RV.
Now when we stored outside years back, I got one mouse that came in with some firewood we bought in South Dakota, and it took 2 years to get rid of that guy - what a hassle. - rgatijnet1Explorer IIIGo to most any hunting store online and order some coyote urine or other predator urine that eats the mice in your area. Spray this around the exterior of your coach every few weeks and none will even try to get in to your coach. In Florida it is a year round issue and I've never had any get inside the coach or seen any indication that they have done anything around the RV at all.
It does drive our dog crazy however and she always has to sniff the area for the coyote. As long as she is sniffing, I know that it is doing it's job. - Two_JayhawksExplorerWe stored in a dirt floor barn for many years. We fought the battle with almost every suggestion mentioned and mice were still a problem. What worked was kill traps and checking them frequently.

I just checked Camping World's website to look this Rodent Repellent up. There was one review which, unfortunately, was very negative. This person had used it for the first time this year (I'm assuming last winter) and he had the most mice in his trailer in over 30 years of camping he also said that it should be called Mice Attractant!
It's a botanical repellant which gives a pungent balsam fir aroma which should drive rodents away but, according to the reviewer, attracts them!
I guess I won't be ordering this any time soon! Plus it's not cheap, $14.99 for a box of 4 packs.
