How to avoid Mice thru Winter Storage

I've used Fresh Cab for the last two winters and would do so again this winter but now can't get it here in Canada so I've asked a friend in the US to bring some up for me next time he comes up this way. Works for me. :B

If you're not convinced you might consider this spray on product called Mouse Free ... I've never used it and probably wouldn't because of the work involved, but you might. ;)

I recently had a problem with a rat in my engine compartment. After cleaning up all the debris, I placed 3 Fresh Cab packets inside the engine compartment. The very next day when I opened the hood, there was evidence the rat had spent considerable time next to one of the packets (food residue and poop). I have returned the Fresh Cab for a refund. It didn't work for me. Snap traps eventually caught the culprit.

I wouldn't use moth balls for the environmental effects and the dryer sheets probably make nice nest bedding. If you don't have a cat (or a disinterested one), coyote, fox, or other animal urines (sold at hunting goods stores) makes a good rodent repellant. I know some folks have good luck with Fresh Cab but I haven't used it so can't say how effective it is.

One thing you can do immediately is remove any pathways into the RV. Any access holes or inviting looking structure should be closed. eliminated, or even treated. Good luck with the mouse problem.
