The problem is, not so much, killing a rodent. The problem is a poisoned rodent dying inside your camper walls or under your floor, or inside a heat or air conditioner duct.

Needless to say, I sealed up all those walls while the studs were exposed.
What I'm saying is, you DO NOT want a dead mouse trapped in the structure of your camper.
And ... to answer your question ... of course a temperature controlled environment would be more beneficial for your camper. But it's not necessary.
