X2 Fresh cab works best in confined spaces. I put them in the outside storage compartments and in the cupboards where the water and/or electrical lines come in. Works for us so far. Our trailer sits on a seasonal site and our friends on the next site found the dyer sheets torn up and mixed with leaves to make a nest in a drawer under the sink on Saturday. Also as others have said plug all holes that give them access. I use stainless steel wool and great stuff to seal up what I can see.

Fresh Cab does not work

Works for us too.

We also carry some snap traps with us when all else fails...only had them once though in AZ. At home we have the humming plug ins. We made a really good effort to spray expanding foam/steel wool in any areas that showed light (at night).

So far so good.

Go out at night and turn the lights on inside your RV and crawl underneath it. You will most likely find several rays of light coming thru.

THAT'S how they are getting in. You need to close all those openings.

The manufactures of these RV's drill away making huge over sized holes for plumbing, electrical wires, etc and they do NOT fill them in.

I hired a couple of Mouse Extermination Experts. Let's see if I can show 'em to you:

Alas I can not.. Hold on there is another way.....



There they are. For some reason Mice avoid this RV.

A previous thread on this subject claimed aluminum foil under the tires worked and make sure no other connection, hoses, power cords, etc touch ground. I did it two years and no mice. I have now taken it one step farther. I put aluminum flashing which I wax with auto wax first, under the tires. Three years now no mice. Seems the slick surface does not give them traction to climb up the tires. I also put the vinyl wheel covers on and even before I used the foil/flashing noticed a reduction in mice even though that left part of the tire unprotected. Traps around the tires also help

Thank you all for you response...

We tried the softener sheets in the past, seemed to always find mouse droppings on the fabric sheets. We use Fresh Cab with excellent results. Spendy, but much cheaper than mouse infestation.
