preventing rat damage - is it possible?
In the past week or two, both my RV and my car have been damaged by rats. I am pretty sure it occurred in the neighborhood's RV storage lot, since the RV can park only there and the car is there when...

We had a rat infestation in our then new TT years ago. The storage lot installed the bait stations. I called the exterminators and asked how the bait stations worked. I was told that they rarely find a dead rat in the bait station. The reasoning was that the Momma rat carried the bait back to her nest to feed to her babies. That way, they killed all the rats. As they were nesting in my TT I didn't want to wait to make that discovery or worse, have them die in an inaccessible place. Snap traps saved the day and after violently evicting 3 of them I had no further trouble. Of course we also moved from that storage place and sealed up any openings we found in the TT.
Clean up was daunting. If my wife had seen the mess they made, she would have never set foot in there again. They only had occupancy for about a week as it took a few days to discover and then a few days to trap them. Shudder, I never want to go through that experience again!
