Us too...

I put LED rope lights around the 5er when camping but only because we like the light from it. :)

Some are semi perm, here for the winter. Some are just around the patio areas, which is for aviance I reckon. Some completely surrounds the rv. Others just have the rope lights completely underneath the rv and some under the toads and pickups...

Near Carlsbad...

My guess is that a rope light is like a giant Twizzler to a rodent. yum, yum!

Bright light does repel pack rats. Trust me on this. Tucson is the pack rat capital of the world.

I just thought people were using rope lights as a new form of landscape lighting.

I have never heard that the deter any sort of rodent.

Since they happily come out during the day to eat I doubt they care about rope lights.
Oh and another internet legend we can dismiss; bugs aren't attracted to LED lights. I found out last weekend that this is the farthest thing from the truth.

Hi, just curious about this. I am in Southeatern NM and have not seen anything like this, are you seeing a lot? Do they appear to be semi-permanent in the park?

Not sure about the rodent deterrent aspect at all.
