What did I just find in my rig?

You know they are in the oven. That's a very good place to trap them.
The longer they are there the more droppings and urine will be deposited. After all you are going to clean it after they're gone.... aren't you???

Agreed, traps are probably going to be the first try but I'm not putting one in my oven either :).

Our trailer is on our hunting lease out in the middle of no where, I'll be baiting/trapping when myself and the dog isn't here. Anybody tried the battery operated ultrasonic rodent devices? I'm thinking that in conjunction with some other sort of trap or poison.

Don't use the poison if your dog or a neighbor's pet might eat the rodent. Or an eagle, or anything.

Yep, and I just found a ziplock bag full of dog food that was left that had a hole in it. Thanks, to the nearest town tomorrow to get some traps if the dachshund doesn't find it first. I can't see where they got in, will traps be sufficient? I'm a little confused how that got in the oven.

From the back of the oven probably. Even your house oven has heat vents in the back. Space can look small but yeah well so are your uninvited guests. Don't be surprised if your oven is missing insulation.

No idea what to use with 4 legged pets. I'm all for lots of poison as well as glue traps but I've a feather baby.

Mouse trap and some poison bait traps should do the trick.

I can't tell from the pic if they are mouse droppings or not but for sure it's some kind of nesting rodent. Which means you prolly have more than one.
