Your best aolution is to stop them getting in. Seal all openings first with SS steel wool or screen followed gby mouse proof spray foam. Its a constant battle for sure, but its a battle that can be won.
Incredibly optimistic to assume you can fully seal against rodent intrusions. You would be amazed where they can slip thru and how thy can climb.
Much better to remove the incentive to take up residence...remove the food and drain the water system. This includes wiping up any spills in the back of cabinets as the scent will still attract them.
We also throw some moth balls around. Downside is you have to air out the trailer for a few days in the spring but it makes the bedding and clothes less attractive as a nesting site.
With no food, water or comfy warm beds, they have little incentive to go into the RV.
I will never use moth balls in my camper again. it took almost a whole summer to get that smell out. Its so terrible.
