Ants

We currently live in Washington and have never had any problem with ants, mice, or other pests in the RV. We are about to leave to move to Georgia, via Colorado and Oklahoma. At what point should we start to use that ant repellant spray (and what is its name again)? And what about mice - when are we likely to start having problems with them? Thanks!

    I don't know if you will have problems with mice but those pesky little ants will crawl right up your electrical and water lines and into the camper. I usually spray under the coach with ant spray and put the ant powder on the cords and that usually keeps them out. If you have pets keep the pet food up and covered.
  • Why would moving cause you to have mice, or ants :?. As long as you don't leave food out for them to come for. you won't have any
